Photography inspired by Jenny Savile

 





Nakedness is the reality and the true form of a body, however nudity is the objectified and unrealistic version of nakedness. My primary goal was to convey nakedness without displaying any nudity. This was accomplished through highlighting flaws such as textured skin, hyperpigmentation, spots, facial hair, and wound scabs. Ways of seeing by John Berger was my inspiration behind the meaning. While the meaning behind these photographs were inspired by John Berger I also tried to mimic Saville's use of awkward unappealing positing and triangular compositions while including flesh like tones through edits.

Store projects/cardboard ceramics

At store projects, we learned how to make and design cardboard ceramics with  the help of designer Ray Gonzalez Brown. We crafted sturdy structured mould out of cardboard rubbish, which then proceeded to fill the mould with clay to take the shape of the unique cardboard textures and folds. Thickly coated with glaze so that the pigment of the white glaze can  slip out between each imprinted folds revealing an undone and incoherent cup.
