‘Humanure’ poster created as a response to the challenges and problems imposed upon us by global warming. Research over the summer at festivals, highlighted how disposable humans are. Indeed, festival organisers had noted this, and now imposed ‘Pootopia toilets’, where human poo is composted and can be used to grow vegetables and gardens. In fact, […]

Swamp Monster a metaphorical story about the swamp of waste I created over the Summer, yet, despite this I managed to not buy any new clothes over the Summer reuse my old garments – therefore, becoming the Swamp Monster. The book documents the waste including various statistics, stories and illustrations.

I started to explore how I could portray the psychedelic Artist influence of Basquiat and Pollock,  and the haunting spellbinding aesthetic to portray graphic superstition. Therefore, I opted for a multi-coloured aesthetic. I also experimented with creating a video, including haunting spellbinding music to suggest the ritual magic influence. The image design itself was inspired by […]

I decided to create my own cult based on breaking the graphic superstition, and so I started to develop my own mascot, and Bible imagery. I used bright colours and distorted computerised lines, so that it did not follow all the graphic rules. The colour imagery, was inspired by other kitsch cult imagery such as […]

I felt that my pieces did not portray the message of fake identities and personas on social media, as this alluded to multiple identities. Therefore, I decided to emphasise the parody of the selfie by dressing up as multiple social media stereotypes to show the power of social media to distort identity. I did this […]

.  As a result of the scrappy finish of the french fold and swatch book, I created a concertina and redeveloped the imagery – therefore it looked neater, whilst the imagery also evoked more of a decay aesthetic portraying my Grandma’s disintegration as a person. I also used my grandma’s handwriting so that it clearly represented […]

I opted to choose the theme ‘If walls Could Talk’. I explored the theme as a metaphor for mutism, as walls cannot talk. I related to this my grandma, who due to dementia and a language barrier cannot communicate. I researched into various wallpaper booklets in order to inspire a book experimentation. I firstly experimented with a […]

I created a series of GIFs to add dynamic to the work, and to animate the ‘talk(ing)’ of the walls. I did this by covering a subject’s face in wallpaper so that only the human animated talking features were exposed, and taking photos of the talking action to form a GIF. I literally experimented covering up […]

I expanded on the idea of covering up by creating my own glitter world. I covered up my whole room in tin foil to emphasise how glitter can cover up. I then compiled a shoot, covering up the model in nude in glitter – where the model is most insecure. Therefore, I created my own […]
