Projection (2) 1.86
The next iteration I made for this week was the first draft of what ended up being my final project with the working title Rats. Something that came up in the tutorial I had with Boris Meister was how I was actually doing a performance in the photos I had taken of myself at Bank.…

Iterating on the professionalism theme, I went around london on two different days shooting street photography of professionals doing both unprofessional things (highlighting the fact that professionalism is all a performance) and ironic/juxtaposed professionals against the city that supports them. At this time, my key reference points were Joan Didion and Christopher Lasch. Specifically, I…

After creating ‘Versus’ I began to think about how to experiment in a controlled, curated manner. This usually is something I try not to do, letting my visual experiments direct themselves, seeing where experimentation can lead me.

Following the photoshoot I had, I created a photobook, symbolising the disconnect I felt with the rest of the world. I wanted to put myself and my statements in dialogue with the world and objects around me, highlighting how out of place I felt. I combed through months worth of photos to find moments of…

I had an idea after the posters idea; make a final project on final projects. I thought about how impossible the task seemed. To create a project that says everything you want it to say in 4 months, defining your academic experience in a master’s once and for all. Of course, the way the final…

Starting out, I began by making posters of things that are either highly branded, or unbrandable. I was attempting to make a lighthearted parody of the experiences I’ve had as a designer in charge of rebranding companies. Instead of trying to re-brand I attempted to try to brand unbrandable things, and objects that have an…

Projection (1) 0.1 & 0.5
When starting this unit, I was feeling a bit unsure of what to do. I had spent a month at home working in a very monotonous job. My days consisted of driving in a loop around my county, going to different schools and checking their vitals. I had a lot of creative energy when I…
