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!!

Experimental Animation

 

This is an experimental piece i made using stop motion, which I still think is not finished. I trying to create an atmospheric approach concentrating on the materiality of objects and textures of the soil, however the work itself is very sketchy as I'm interested in the drawn aspect of the work.  I have drawn into the soil creating images of nature and growth as it mainly focuses on environmental meanings.  It is very quirky yet i still think the sense of narrative could be more present. There is a element of symbolism, childhood and nature in the piece as I've mainly combined image with sound.  Yet i still feel like i could refine the piece a bit more. Please feel free to comment as your comments mean a lot to me :)  


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 :)

Feeling the Effects


This piece is to express the idea of repetition. At the time I created the piece I was drinking and socialising quite a lot and i wanted to express this into an art context. The work has aspects of dark humor, tension, atmosphere, in a very surreal manner with the illusions of the pint glass exploding and the close up of the dart hitting the dartboard.
