Continuing from my previous project…
In Interrogating Practice, the penultimate module for MA Photography, I produced a set of images created through combining exposures, to generate abstract forest images inspired by woodland folklore and mythology, but to be deliberately ambiguous in interpretation.
A large part of this choice came from my background and interest in filmmaking and visual storytelling. As the module was oriented to experimental practice, I opted for more abstract results, but I was keen on exploring the story-inspired image further, with perhaps a clearer, more literal interpretation.
My initial idea for the final project, was to start with the double exposure approach that I’d established in the previous module, and introduce additional elements as assets and blend them in to create visual depictions of fictional scenes that take place in forest settings, inspired by mythology, fantasy and history, but with a contemporary twist.
