After much thinking and contemplating it was decided that we would name our exhibition-
'Products Of Our Environment'
The reason behind this name is that we are all 'products of our environment', thus meaning it mixes with our theme of culture and society well. While also having a catchy ring to it which will make the general public remember it and thus want to visit it.
We have also made a manifesto to go along side our exhibition title, which can be sent to different galleries and organisations to let them know what our exhibition will showcase. This will help us when trying organise to rent some exhibition space, which we still need to sort out. We also have a quote to go along side our own manifesto.
Manifesto:
Our exhibition showcases the products of our environments through the medium of photography. Maybe through our own eyes looking out, maybe through another’s looking in, or maybe through our conditioning. We aim to reflect the cultures and societies that have nurtured us individually, and to investigate how we can be led by the influence of other cultures. Through fashion, documentary and many other mongrel hybrid genres we aim to showcase a plethora of Products Of Our Environment.
"You are a product of your environment. So choose the environment that will best develop you toward your objective. Analyze your life in terms of its environment. Are the things around you helping you toward success - or are they holding you back?"

After we as a group decided on what our exhibition title should be we also thought that our group should have a collective name that we can fall under. This will help when writing to potential galleries and newspapers, because we can just refer to ourselves as said group instead of always saying we are a group of students from Manchester Metropolitan University. Furthermore this name will help for the making of our website, because we can have the address for it as the name.
We collectively decided that 'Neoteric' would be a good name for our group of students, the reason behind naming it this is its definition: Neoteric- 'belonging to recent times; recent'
This name fits are group well, because we are all upcoming photographers that are creating work that responds to our current culture and society.
