Final Folio


For my final folio I decided to do a short story, Never Woke Up, by Katy Towell. I like to call the story a fractured fairy tale. I origionally wanted to do Alice in Wonderland but changed to this story because I wanted to show something that I felt would not have been done and wanted something that would grab peoples attention simply because they were not expecting to see it.
The story tells of a small girls bad dream that she can't escape event by waking up. I choose to focus my photos on the possible fear and loss of hope I felt the story evokes. I choose black and white to represent this world to blend my subject into the environment, trying to evoke a sence that she is a part of this world and can not escape it. I also tried to achieve this look by making my subject look slightly ghostly, giving a sence of her fading into this hopeless world. The writing on my mounts was to give the audience a sence of the story and how I saw it. I tried to keep in theme with the story and make the photos,writing and mounts as 'fractured' as I found the story.
If I had to change my presentation I would have liked to present them in a book, but I would keep the text the similar to the writing on the mounts to give it my own personal view of how I feel the story moves.

Assignment 6 Never Woke Up by Katy Towell

One day I fell asleep and I never woke up...

Assignment 5 The Second Coming





Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosened upon the world

Assignment 2 CD Cover

Shiny Toy Guns- Le Disko





Hello little boys, little toys
We’re the dreams you'll believe in
Crawling up the walls
Running down your face
Razor sharp, razor clean
Feel the weapon's sensation
On your back...With loaded guns
