Personal Experiments and Struggle

Personal Experiments and Struggle

I am still finding it hard to find an area and medium in Isoloneliness that I would like to develop and feel that this whole year will consist of experimenting and artist research. This month I have set a challenge to myself to find a topic that I like and stick with it as I am not going to get very far if I keep experimenting, so this month, I will be focusing on experimenting, next month, it will be one project, and I will stick to it.

For the moment, I have conducted more experiments to do with personal loneliness, as a collective loneliness is proving complicated. Assuming on other peoples loneliness isn’t very wise.

A Portrait of myself

This experiment is clique. I know that I have been trying to avoid these kind of experiments because they are predictable and amateurish, but I could develop from them. Its worth a try. At this stage, I feel I have to because I am running out of ideas and time is running out.

A portrait of myself is self explanatory. I have taken the concept of using a mask to hide behind (I know it’s been done to death). I took some random photographs that have been constructed.

Review;

This is another failed project, as I expected. All the reasons are obvious. The images are amateurish and don’t tell the story of isolation. It could be seen as I am hiding from something, but it is unclear to what. I don’t think I will continue this project because of its predictability.
