I'm back

After having the most hectic few months (which I will blog about later) I've launched my self directed final project, I will be delving deep into people's personal lives, living through their memories and searching for their deepest and possibly darkest life events, through the world of photography, using both traditional darkroom techniques and digital software. Today I have completely dedicated my time to playing around with some possessions of my own and other students, this is primarily for experimental and research purposes, responding to other artists and experimenting with colour, composition and my theme. Here are some of my outcomes... I have asked people to 'lay your life on my table'

These are my possessions, my jacket, shoes, purse, cards, watch, coffee cup, sketchbook, my everyday objects.

In a jumble, focusing on composition.

Alex's breakfast. She has a cold today. I'm focusing on colour, never normally would I dare to place red and yellow together but it's become quite a happy accident.

Cards. 

Are you due on?

Women all over the world will have experienced a boy who's pulled out a tampax from her bag thinking it was a sweet. Colours are deceiving.

Zara is my most liked shop at the moment. Focusing on composition again.

Mine and Rosie's jackets.

10:30am and two coffees have been consumed in the studio. 

Alex's collectables

 Alex's keys and sting ray good luck toy.

Brodie's bag. Focusing on colour and composition.

Essentials again, colour, composition and light.

Breakfast is usually consumed on a grubby drawing mat. Focusing on colour and texture.

Good job I'm so good at parking, not so good my boyfreind buys sweets for every journey.

I wonder how many times my Nan applied lipstick in this mirror? Focusing on colour and composition. 

Cirencester. 

The temptation to remove all of my clothes and lie naked on a long sheet of white paper when I asked myself to lay my life on the table was unbearable, our lives are made from possessions, as sad as that thought is, our bodies simple aren't enough to keep us living our lives... 

I will forever fake tan, I will also forever want to take nude photographs of whoever I can, whenever I can.
