February 2026 Results
The Set Subject for our January club event was “Triptych “.
Manipulation is allowed.
Triptych photography is a single artwork, made of three distinct images displayed together. It can either be three separate photographs with a common theme or a single image split into three panels. The goal is for the three images to work together to create a cohesive piece, conveying a single message.
Congratulations to our winning photographers whose work stood out:
🥇 Senior Winner: “Faces Trilogy” Rion Fullard
🥈 Junior Winner: “Warholl se Lego Monroe” Christa Purchase
Well done to all participants for embracing the challenge and producing such inspiring work!
A Word from our February 2026 Winners
“Faces Trilogy“ Rion Fullard
Rion sê:
Daar is baie interressante beeldhouwerke in die Walter Sisulu Botaniese Tuin in Ruimsig! Die drie kleurvolle gesigte op pale het vir my baie goed gelyk met die blou lug as agtergrond. Ek het toevallig drie fotos gehad wat van verskillende hoeke afgeneem was – daarvandaan my idee vir die triptiek onderwerp.
Dit was nogal ‘n uitdaging om die gesigte se agtergronde te verwyder – goeie oefening om my prosesserings sagteware beter te leer ken! Daarna net hulle beligting ewe gemaak, geskaleer en geposisioneer in drie rame met blou agtergrond gradient, om die idee te gee van gesigte wat in die lug opstyg.
“Warholl se Lego Monroe“ Christa Purchase
Christa says:
My nephew and I started playing with Lego people since he was 4 years old. It was mostly war games. As he grew up, and started getting into sport, I inhereted the Lego people.
At some point I started hitting a creative wall with no new ideas. The Lego people became my models as I could pose them as I wanted to.
I knew about the iconic Andy Warholl image of Marilyn Monroe. As soon as the set subjects were published I immediately realised that it will fun to combine my Lego models into my own version of the Warholl image. I also wanted to present something totally different than anyone else while giving them something to smile about. Hopefully I achieved my goal.
