Glove experiments.

I used different materials in gloves to see if I could recreate the inside of a human hand. I used glue and ink in this one:

I liked this one. People felt it and thought it was really creepy and weird and it kind of felt like human muscle and fat in the hand. It even looked like fat inside I quite liked it.

This one I used glue ink and wax:
I liked this one the most and this one is the one people found to be the most creepy because the wax felt like bone that had been smashed up.

This last one I just used ink and wax:
This one felt like shattered bone but it wasn't as good because it didn't feel like a real hand because there is no 'fleash' feeling.








Maze idea.

This was one of my ideas for my work. I wanted to make a maze for people to get lost in. This is the start of my research into mazes. I started to make a small maze to start off with however it's not yet finished. 




Model armature.

I tried to make a model of what I wanted to put on the wall as an installation piece but it went a bit wrong.

Lilith inspired photography.


These pictures I took were inspired by Kiki Smith's Lilith 
Amy painted Eleanor black then I realised I could use her for my work because it reminded me of Lilith and she did look truly terrifying. I then took a video of her dancing to 'tiptoe through the tulips' because that to me is a creepy song. I  thinking of using something similar to this for my final piece.

Balloon light development.

After playing about with the balloons for a bit we decided to try and take the lights out and put them in wax so the light would shine through. We then thought it wouldn't work because the heat from the wax could break the light but we tried anyway and this is the result.






Light up balloons

We bought some balloons from pound land that light up and we lit them up to try and create strange images.

FMP work (colour theory)

We (me, Cameron and Eleanor) changed the shutter speed on the camera and got Eleanor and Emma to dance and move about to create these ghostly images with different coloured backgrounds to reflect different moods. It links in with my FMP because ghosts are something people are afraid of so I think it works quite well.
