New work. Short project, to be completed by the 8th of April. The working title is ‘Meet Mary.’ The goal is to photograph – Mary – acting out all of/or most of her childhood fantasies. The aim with this project is to produce a series of cohesive images which can be entered into a local competition. The greater goal with this work is to improve digital skills as well as expand illustrative/fantasy portfolio, with the aim of getting work with local theaters. With regard to conceptual material and research my primary interests are the indexicality of the image, history of fairytales/folklore, performance art, photo-therapy, and the construction of narrative. Visually I will be looking for artists/photographers who explore different techniques with regard to lighting effects, narrative sequencing, digital manipulation,  and image construction/production shoots.

*no newts were harmed in the making of these images.
