In this shoot my intensions were to create a series of images about depression, looking how it affects
a person, showing how it swallows some one up until that is all there is left, for this I used water as a metaphor.
I communicated my intensions mainly through the use of a model as psychological is all about effecting the persona of a person. I mostly used poses to communicate my intensions, laying her on the ground as if she has given up.
I took inspiration from John Everet Millais Ophelia, although it wasn’t about depression it was about despair which I wanted to communicate in the shoot. I wanted to create a contempory impression of Ophelia without replicating it. I think the location seems like the person has given up with reality and escaped to hide them self in there own world.
INSTALLAION
To present my images I decided to make another installation and bring the setting of
the shoot into an exhibition environment.
I wanted to use the natural world to get the viewers mind thinking about how is has been achieved.
For me with this installation the bigger the better this way people can walk around
it, touch it, and even smell it; these all give the viewer a sense of
being in the environment , immersed in it.
Within my construction I made a peep hole filled with water, fairly lights and images.
