Context

At the start of the project I wanted my audience to mainly be the fashion industry using light to manipulate the figure into thinking that it is something it is not eg using a a larger model and by using light and Photoshop manipulate the fashion industry into using in their magazine – Helene storey fine art base however with a fashion context- dressed and suits dissolving into water
helene storey- 'wonderland'


However that changed through the course of my project and became more fine art photography based trying to it unclear to the viewer what they are looking at because the images are stained by different effects such as my textured drawings, colour filters, and the wet plate effect.
My audience are the type of people that go to scream or whisper gallery two galleries I know about because a friend used to work there. 'Promotes and established artists along with innovative cotemporary talent' one artist at scream had light books on the walls Malgosia Stepnik similar ro my own work. 'Established as part of the London art scene showcase artist on a global platform', they are always looking for something new and different.My audience are the type of people who go to these galleries they want to see something a bit different techniques they have not seen before, be confused and intriguid. Art that is accessible to anyone who wants to see modern or contemporary art, anyone who has a passion for art/ photography they should have accessibility to it.



Layout similar to Tyler shields (shown below)photographs shown in a seqence. Or even in a gallery space and a massive version of my book on the wall human size so the audience can interact with turn these huge pages to see what layer has been taken off the to to reveal  the figure slowly.

Another place to put it in sex mode digestion a digital magazine that promotes fashion, culture and the arts with psychoanalytic angle which is something I have been looking at in my lecture and seminar, modern bodies freuds theories etc. Free and availed worldwide accessible to very one.

Photoshop effects on my images

 Manipulated my projected images in Photoshop by adding different layer gradually making them harder to realize what they are. Creating an image of mainly light but a  hints of the figure.





colour filter



hard light layer



colour filter warm red, adding a darken layer effect as well


printing them onto acetate and seeing what different formations look good, adding different effect. When turning each image over another bit of the figure slowely becomes clearer






Projecting onto the figure


Did another photo-shoot with a female model and projected my close up drawing and some of the wet plate effects on to her back, the back has been the main focus throughout my project has the biggest surface area to is perfect to project images onto.









I feel these photographs work really well certain lines fall right in certain places that complement the figure. They all have different effects some look like she is disease with spots on her back other barred wire almost and others with a feather like effect
