Ideas while working on installation >>>
- Using materials to draw attention/optimise the themes of imagery
- Images that suggest "seeing into" and others suggesting "viewing" (?)
- Work on ways to express emotions in imagery
- Creating an immersive environment with my images.
I am really excited to progress forward with my work!!

Installation work
I have recently been forming installations with my work - working with projection of imagery to create an immersive environment where the audience are drawn into the piece and react to the particular emotions and sensations I want to work to portray through my pieces.
My work has developed so much, my tutor even commented that I have really progressed throughout the term which was a real positive thing for me to hear. I have now relaxed more with my practice and don't feel the need to excessively search for a definition and specific concept at all.
As always, my work is personal to me - to things I see, imagine and how I perceive everything around me. I want to work with the imagery I have to create "scenes" or dreamscapes that the audience are drawn into. To me, it seems the most essential thing of my practice is to get the audience to react to my pieces - to be affected by the colours, detail and imagery shown in my work.
I want a final and finished product to be completed by the end of the week - using the imagery I already have. I want to create a piece I can work from. The installation work has really fuelled my passion and I want to pursue it further.
The Face piece will definitely be used because of the engaging quality it has with the audience - it has been commented that they are sinister/disturbing eyes, these lock eyes with the viewer and almost seem to will them to look upon what is being portrayed around the space. Like they are demanding the viewer look around (referring to my themes of trying to get the audience to see the world how I do). I want the audience to engage with images and the space - considering including other features such as items strewn around, material on the floor etc.
I experimented with using fabric on the walls - a basic idea but it draws the audience to certain sections of my work and to generally experiement with what materials I can use to empathise particular themes of the work e.g. loosely pinned sheets over the wall with Window piece - the ideal of things being damaged or coming apart.
