Mark-Work update

These are work in progress candidates for the degree show. At the moment they are early versions, I'll be using a better editing program next time round. I think they need music so I have added some music to one to see if it successful or not. They represent the movement and heat of the strange sun reflective shapes I photographed. As I say they are by no means finished.

Keeping you up to date,

I know I've not put much on here or written in a while, but I'm having endless arguments with myself about my work.

Starting off thinking I'm studying 'Femininity' and that it should end up as a simple exploration and documentation of this was a little silly really. Femininity is so much more. I've begun an essay styled written piece to share my findings and to also help my own understanding. My work has now developed into 'What makes a woman feminine?'. This means I'm not eliminating the understanding that femininity can be applied to males and objects etc. I'm still working with knickers but now taking inspiration from the the channel 4 show Embarrassing Bodies and the ways in which Women are both similar and different, exploring the differences in what can make a woman feminine.

Understanding (finally) the concept of 'subject' and 'object', I'm trying to realise a way of displaying these knickers that crosses between subject and object and is aware if the male gaze as an audience.

I hope this makes sense, I'll keep you posted again soon!
