My practice is based on the issues that we see on a daily basis, that can sometimes overshadow peoples personal problems. |
Public Announcement (2010)
This is my degree show at Staffordshire University, This piece was for the audience to notice the message I was presenting them with but I was also blending it in with the surroundings of the University when using the colour and font that we are used to seeing around us everyday. I was wanting show a voice of someone searching for help but wasn’t sure if they were ready to ask for help so mixing it into this setting for the audience to try and notice the voice of someone looking for help.
‘Taking away peoples comfort’ (2010)
When entering a building there is information and signs informing us about our surroundings.I want to reduce the signs and place them in different areas to make the audience more aware of their surroundings in case of an emergency.
Untitled (2010)
I can’t think of a title at the moment it is a piece I am going to be developing within my practice. This video I have set up a conversation between two people where a breakdown of a relationship is beginning to unfold in front of the audience.
How would you handle a situation? (2010)
This is another film where I have arranged a conversation to the audience where I am asking them how they would handle a situation. I feel this piece will make the audience question and think about this question. The place to display this piece is still something I am still thinking about and testing.
WARNING! Notice (2010)
This is a piece I have recently been working on. I have taken a conversation of a person trying to get the attention of a group of people but they are not paying attention to what they are saying. I thought I would film it in a place where you wouldn’t normally notice a sign which would be informing them of information which may be important.
