Working on A1, trying to make the images more fused together in process. Here's a step by step progress of the process.
Making these glamourous women (either iconic or from advertising campaigns such as vogue) unrecognisable so the glamour is present more in the process and the making of the work rather than the content.
Traditional Glamour through shape, form and intervention. Perfection of architecture in comparison to traditionally glamourous women in early to mid 20th century.
100 Years of solitude. Mathematical backgrounds and dissecting landscapes are the kind of things i'm exploring with this project at the moment again experimenting with cut throughs, seeing what kind of patterns and depth of image i can make by using this technique.
Cutting through my sketchbook so that there is also a nice aesthetic quality to my work- giving the images a vibe of a scrapbook or a photo album when you see the images first hand.
Using negative space throughout my imagery to enhance the image- the space in the image being a metaphor for a gap that need to be filled, an emptiness.
Vivienne Bloom- part of my authorial project trying to communicate melancholy and sadness throughout this part of my work.

The images that i'm creating at the moment show my love of photography and this preservation of age that i love to show in my work...this oldness and nostalgia. Pulling things apart and making in a clever and aesthetically pleasing way are what i enjoy doing in my practice.
