Stop Motion of Memories from 2011

 

This is a stop motion piece depicting the memories from some of the photos i took in 2011 when being with friends and family.  I thought it would be quite interesting to see them all together as a short animation project.  Roll on 2012.  I do not own the rights to the music.  

Hideaway 2011

 

Hideaway 2011
Circular Room Installation

This was the piece i did for my final degree show at Goldsmiths. After a lot of time, planning, setting up, and effort my idea came to life.  The piece was to represent a sanctuary space where someone could come to relax or escape as there own little hideaway or den.  The stillness of the piece was very important to me as i wanted it to be a place of tranquility, the clock on the wall didn't work, the fags in the ash tray were stumped out and the smell of the bark gave it a natural atmosphere.  Thank you for those who commented in my book!!

Goldsmiths Degree Show

So its finally came to a close the work has been taken down, the gallery space remain empty as when it started.  It is quite upsetting to be leaving the course as i never thought it would have dawned so quickly.  I was very happy for the feedback and comments from viewers and fellow students about my work as it has made me inspired and motivated to continue making work in the same field of interest. I wish to say a big thank you for everyone who supported me and came by to see my work and other peoples. :)

Bus Stop

This is my newest animation involving a man waiting at a Bus Stop while everyday life happens around him, however not all goes to plan while he is waiting.  I've added a small amount more to the animation to show the passage of time.  It is a very simple idea and correlates very much like the fish bowl animation underlining the concepts of everyday life, waiting, time and boredom. Please feel free to watch :)

Fed Up 2010 (New alternative piece)

This is a redo of Fed Up as i wasn't happy with the other animation.  It involves more shots then the first so the movement of the fish is a bit more smoother and has a completely different ending.  The piece talks about the essence of time and waiting and I've extended the piece to underline these aspects of the work as i found the first piece to short. The work itself is minimalistic with the simple drawing showing the movement of the fish and the environment around it. After all this is a fishes life and i find it very inspirational with connotations of loneliness, repetition, stillness, being trapped, and self-consciousness. Please feel free to watch :)
