This Guy… (The Failed Minimalist)

This first selection of four pictures illustrates something I would like to develop further as I start this third stage of the OCA degree. The second half of DIC allowed me to examine some of  the mass of stuff that had moved house with me a year or so earlier and which hadn’t found a home yet.
 

fig.1 – this guy expands to fit all available space (expanded)
fig.2 – this guy doesn’t know when to stop
fig.3 – this guy can be read like a book
fig.4 – this guy fails to keep things in perspective

The title for the final assignment’s set of twelve images came from a remark made by fellow-student Nuala Mahon, at Forum Live: ‘You look at all this stuff and you wonder, “Who is this guy?”’

Journeys

Travel is an ongoing theme that runs through my work for the OCA. Here are three journeys – one made during Landscape with the other two during Digital Image and Culture –  visualised as four narratives of movement.


fig.1: Against the Current – A Journey (LPE A2, revised for assessment, 2022)
fig.2: Unfolding a Cyanotype Map of the Lea (LPE A2, 2021)
fig.3: Arlanda Airport Express (DIC A1, 2020)
fig.4: Frankfurt to Munich by ICE (DIC A5, 2020)
