This collection of images explores my chosen images and how I am going to display them in my online exhibition. The first two images which will be named "Look to the Sea" are going to be displayed together. The context behind these images is that whilst I was exploring a small fishing village in Scotland I notices a hand painted sign on a house whish said "Look to the Sea". I took the first picture whilst looking in the direction of that house. I then chose to look at the sea which was directly behind me. The second photograph shows what I saw when I turned around. I wanted to include these images as their own piece of work.
The following images are the final handwritten text and images.
The following images are explorations of ways to display my photographs in a book format. I wanted to explore this format because making books with my photographs has been something which I have explored before. For photo book are a key part to my practice. It allows me to compile my images together and create an intimate way of exhibiting. Whoever goes to look through the book has to physically turn the pages to reveal the next images. It also asks the viewer to closely examine the photographs which is an intimate process. This project explored intimate feelings of mortality and freedom so I wanted to reflect that within my photographs. I am just unsure which format I prefer currently. To combat this I am going to ask for others opinions.
The following two images were done as an experiment. I wanted to try writing my text onto a clear surface such as glass and placing it in front of my photograph. I chose to try this because it was mentioned to me in one of my crits and I thought that it sounded interesting. This is something I want to experiment further with, especially as an installation piece. The clear surface creates a window into that specific place and my mind. It also allows the viewer to ready the text and the closely examine the photograph.
