New Directions

My photography, through experimentation, has take a turn in a whole new direction I never really thought I'd be able to do. Montage. Lately in order to create my dream goal I have been montaging several images together. Such as 'My Magic Scarf' a montage of 6 images, 'Beautiful Suffocation' a montage of 12 images and 'What Brought Us Here?' a montage of 11 images.


April 2011, 'My Magic Scarf'

May 2011, 'Beautiful Suffocation'

May 2011, 'What Brought Us Here?'


It is an interesting development in my practice and I'm not really sure where I'm going with it. At the moment I think I'm still playing with how strange I can make it look without it looking stupid. I've also just been wondering where my genre lies; is it fantasy or surrealist? Where is the line between those two? It is a topic that I need to write an essay on for another university subject so perhaps in a few weeks I'll understand.
Enjoy my art :)
