2020 weave scans. I just recently learned to weave as something new to do to pass the time. I’m enjoying mixing colours and different textures. I intend on continuing experimenting with all sorts of materials and different sizes

NOVEMBER 15 2016 - Cooperation Novembers submission for House Journal. Theme: Cooperation

house-journal.io/journal/volume-iv/

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Everyone knows of cooperation from a social context. We learn about it, we are put into scenarios when we are needed to work with others to get a job done by working together using our individual skill sets. But what about with inanimate objects? As an artist who works solely with objects, I wanted to bring this idea of cooperation through my own style of photography.

How objects work together, how one object is associated with another. The idea that one could not work/ would not be the same without the other.” _________________________________________________ House Journal is an online magazine about human experiences run by Benai Pham. Its a discussion to think about certain issues and ideas that make us human. House Journal also featured many other artists from different art forms ranging from photographs, poems, short-stories and drawings.

Contact Sheets from my objects series.  These were originally how I wanted to present my work during my finals if video was not available to me. These could work out effectively  as prints too.

OCTOBER 2016

Octobers submission for House Journal. Theme: Fear

house-journal.io/journal/volume-iv/

————————————————————————————

“If asked what I fear the most I would say to lose someone close to me. Thanatophobia is the fear of losing someone you love. Summarised, it is the fear of death.

 I remember waiting outside school for my father. Minutes...an hour passes. I walk home to find out that he's in hospital. The worst week of my life and I remember every detail of it. Most of that time I spend staring at objects in my home that reminded me of him. I dread the day to find someone I love no longer exists. But everything they breathed or touched stays the same.

 In this series I photograph mundane and personal objects. Playing with the idea of object and owner and what if it turned out to be that the owner did not return? Leaving behind what is like a foot print in the sand. In this case, a mark of their human existence. This is an on-going series also inspired by Ishiuchi Miyako.“
