THE EVERYDAY


This next assignment asked that we looked at the everyday in a new perspective.
Inspired by Philippe Halsman's Dali Atomicus I tried my best to replicate this dynamic photograph on a smaller scale using household objects. My final image is titled "Gravitea" which is a pun I am both proud of and ashamed to use publicly.

DOMESTIC BLISS


This first assignment was particularly stressful as I was plagued with terrible weather and had to cancel more than one shoot. The topic was "Domestic Bliss" and we essentially had complete creative freedom. I took the angle of the 50's domestic household dropped into the bliss of nature.

LET THIS BEGIN

I have be itching to start a formal blog for quite a while now. I had one that I used up until a year-ish ago in a diary format but had deleted and moved on.
Now is the time to come back to this marvellous platform and use this site to document what I have been doing with my life from this point onward. 
I think it's valuable to chronicle life in some way because it offers people a constant window into you life as well as a catalyst for activities and projects you wouldn't otherwise see necessary to complete.

So let it all begin! I'd love to start by sharing what I have done over the past semester for university. Hopefully you find it quite fascinating.
