Spode - Abandoned Factory


I haven't posted any work for a while as I haven't been very motivated. 
My parents rallied me and took me to the Ceramics Biennial at Spode factory in Stoke-on-Trent. This exhibition shook me and made me realise that I had lost my creativity and drive to produce work.
Now looking back at my images there is a massive sense of emptiness and loneliness, figures by their selves or an empty space, which perhaps reflected how I felt walking around, I felt very much in my own bubble.

This was an experiment shoot. Not usually something I do because I don't work in the studio. Starting point for breaking into third year of university.

Transience

A long time posting. My latest uni project.

“Woman is the being who projects the greatest shadow or the greatest
light on our dreams.”
                                     - Charles Baudelaire
My initial concept for my body of work came from Freuds Requiem on transience. Their enjoyment is spoilt by the subconscious mourning of it’s beauty through the transience over time. I wanted to take the enjoyment away from the viewer and myself. This was an experience for me and a connection between myself and my model. My female gaze
upon their nude female body, which can raise a lot of questions. You desire something you can’t have. Visualise it over and over in your mind. The enjoyment is there in that moment in time, but then gone. Crumbled away like beauty itself. It’s a guilty pleasure. Enjoy the moment and that presence of that specific person, don’t subconsciously mourn for it loss, until it’s gone.
