Through my primary research, I visited galleries, museums and other places where art is created or exhibited. I took pictures of any works that naturally captured my attention, without having already picked up an idea for a game. This way, I left myself free to discover my areas of interest through research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><br>The types of works of art I photographed included paintings, sculptures, historical objects, buildings, and modern art. I was paying particular attention to elements such as colour, texture, composition, atmosphere and the visual style itself. Seeing the artworks in person helped me notice aspects I would never have experienced online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1412\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sg1r23-2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2026\/08\/image-2-scaled.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-760\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sg1r23-2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2026\/08\/image-2-scaled.png 2560w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sg1r23-2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2026\/08\/image-2-300x165.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sg1r23-2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2026\/08\/image-2-1024x565.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sg1r23-2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2026\/08\/image-2-768x424.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sg1r23-2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2026\/08\/image-2-1536x847.png 1536w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sg1r23-2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2026\/08\/image-2-2048x1130.png 2048w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sg1r23-2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2026\/08\/image-2-850x469.png 850w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1455\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sg1r23-2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2026\/08\/image-4-scaled.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-786\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sg1r23-2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2026\/08\/image-4-scaled.png 2560w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sg1r23-2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2026\/08\/image-4-300x171.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sg1r23-2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2026\/08\/image-4-1024x582.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sg1r23-2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2026\/08\/image-4-768x437.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sg1r23-2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2026\/08\/image-4-1536x873.png 1536w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sg1r23-2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2026\/08\/image-4-2048x1164.png 2048w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sg1r23-2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2026\/08\/image-4-850x483.png 850w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">The photographic evidence primarily showcases my research, conducted through books and gallery visits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">In looking through my collection of photographs, I realised that what interested me were especially works with visual storytelling elements, distinct art styles, historical references, and the combination of old and modern imagery.
