Unit 3 Final - What If Everything Isn't As You Perceive It? ...And Other Existential Questions

What If Everything Isn't As You Perceive It? ...And Other Existential Questions, 2011, mixed media video

My final piece for Unit 3 Art A-Level concerned my ideas of existential awareness, perception of the world through our different senses and our minds interpretation of them, and how individuals may interpret this sensory information differently and thus we perceive things differently to one another.

The second video is a spectrogram: soundwaves translated into images. For the skull drawing to appear in the soundwaves, the drawing was first synthesised into sound using a program called Coagula. This is the sound in that video. The intention is to represent reality as it is outside of our perceptions of it, represented in the video above.

Intended as an installation piece.

V & VI

Photos of my brother in dark and fog at different shutter speeds. V & VI were accidently printed on the wrong side of photographic printing paper, the ink stayed wet for a while. I liked how they made the images appear aged and worn, ghostly in their own right.

Light Painting

Photographic experiments, taken of street lamps in December of 2010.

Fog

Taken last November, a foggy winter evening.

Trees

Taken last spring, visiting my mum in Somerset.

Phaes

Self shot pictures of me playing with a glass, with and without water. Adjusted the contrast to give a slightly grainy look.

The title is supposed to be a pun on the word 'face'.
