I read the critical reading that was related to Instagram, which was called “Instagram Influences Creative Work”. Instagram has become another platform where one can express themselves and share their work with others (Instagram Influences Creative work). It has become more than just an app where people share photos. This app is changing the way we read literature, for it is transforming it into an art piece. As for the creative works, the first one I took a look at was the “Snap Art”. It was so interesting to see someone basically make their own filters by drawing them on their snaps. These drawings on the snap definitely changed the original photo, for it was able to bring the photo to life and give it new meaning.
