I’m exhausted, I’ve been working in my mums floristry shop today, I’d love to go to bed, I’m not even bothered about having tea. I’ve got so much to do though so I’m going to sit down with a cup of coffee and then I’m going to get on with it.
Flesh
‘Flesh’ is a series of work based on cell production and growth. This project started as a screenprint from paper stencils. I later used digital prints of the screenprint to construct ‘Flesh.’ The colours used for the cells where found in flesh, skin, organs and blood. As the saying goes Beauty is only skin deep, this work is about something beautiful not actually being all it appears to be.
Forest: Lungs of the World
With the ever growing concern of climate change, this work is about the declining population of trees and the importance and impact they have on the planet. Carbon dioxide is probably the largest contributor to climate change, with human consumption being the major fact. Trees play an important role in the survival of our planet as they absorb Carbon dioxide. Inspired by lung tissue, this miniature forest emphasise how trees are the lungs of the world. These books are part of a large developing project and the pages of each book have been cut using a simplified design of lung tissue. The books have been opened and fanned out to give the desired affect.
Black and White Cell Book
‘Black and White Cell Book’ is from a series of books that differ in the way the content is presented but are all based on cells dividing.
Each cell was printed from little round cardboard plates that were placed under each page before printing. This was the first project I undertook after finishing my degree and was a labour of love. I could have produced a similar book more easily and quickly, but I used processes that I enjoy instead.
