‘Humanism’

Inkjet digital print
At the start of the year the aim of my folio was to create a body of work that represented what we can’t see when looking at the human body. I was clear I wanted my image to be portraiture with a single central focus and dark studio background, that emulated the aethereal, luminosity of Bill Henson’s depiction of skin and the anthropomorphic lines of the body, juxtaposed with the jagged edges and pop of brightness that the bone possesses.
At the beginning of the year I had a strict idea of what I wanted to do, and that was a similar idea but instead of collage I wanted to use projection. However, after my potential directions and having to adapt my work to be able to construct it at home I soon realized that collage both looked better and was easier to create in isolation. I focused more on collage in my folio, it reflected a more natural looking juxtaposition of bone and skin specifically with the smooth paper I printed on.
The collage took relentless focus to cut out, each tiny detail of the ribs has to be done, it I got there, and the outcome is beautiful, I love my works and I think the direction I followed is better than my original idea, it is textural and visually enticing.

'Wife'

Inkjet print

Studio Arts Photography

This photographic series tells the story of a woman who is tired of her life as a housewife and tired of her perpetually disappointing husband. She poisons her husband in order to be free of the caregiving she is expected to undertake, for someone who doesn’t care for her. I drew inspiration from Film Noir style and settings.
