‘Conversations with Myself’

The body of work portrays sufferers of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) weighed down by a burden of doubt they place upon them self every day of their lives.

The intentions of the work as a whole lead the viewer into a labyrinthine of complex identities, revealing the many facets that OCD inflicts on each sufferer whilst in their homes.

 

 

 
     
The Myth of Sexual Loss

The work explores and challenges the ideology surrounding intimacy and the fear of the ageing sexual body that exists within our society.



 
     
"Better safe than 'sorry'"

A visual exploration of domestic violence and its aftermath which aims to convey the experiences of both women & children who have no other choice but to stay in a safe house.

 
     
Self Imprisonment

The images visually explore the tormented thoughts of an agoraphobic sufferer. This is achieved by taking the viewer on a complex inward journey that attempts to describe an enclosed, distorted reality stimulated by sub-conscious anxieties.
