The Matter Of Existence, 2015
This photoset is from my soft sculpture uni work.As part of my final assessment project ‘Victim Blaming.’
These images are the most successful images of my soft sculpture work. I created these as a direct response to Rona Pondick and Sarah Lucas as I wanted to create an unsettling image that provoked thoughts of abuse and a loss of innocence as part of my rape culture project. Using ballerina slippers to make the audience think of innocencn, with ripped tights to provoke a setting of violence.
I wanted to create the atmosphere of abuse without being too direct, to give the viewer the chance to create their own feelings surrounding the images.Whilst editing these images I wanted to create a spotlight effect on them and I feel the images displayed here are more successful in conveying the affect I want to achieve, rather than displaying the sculpture as 3D pieces.
