Iced heart

I like to do as many experiments as i can within a project, some end badly but some i love and this is one of them. I wanted the heart to become frozen and see what effects it might have. I was hoping for it to go black but instead got this beautiful ice quilt effect over the heart. I managed to get a perfect container that gives it this great ice cube shape. Really happy with these outcomes and cant wait to work on them and slap some type on!

How to show love

I don't mean hugs and kisses, i mean visually, but without using a heart symbol.

My first thought was a rose, so like the heart i dissected it and scanned it in. I got some really nice outcomes, with some nice colour patterns made by low ink.

I felt that these images would work really well with something opposite, like the heart, next to it. So i scanned in the heart and produced some beautiful, ghostly images, together they don't look opposite at all.

Thanks babe the pig

A project about the heart... lets buy one! So i did.

Thanks to mother who knows some people.. i managed to get this lovely pigs heart for 59p. The smell is unbelievable, its revolting, i had to hold my breath whilst taking these photos.

I dissected the heart and zoomed in on different sections that give it a very intriguing and some what uncomfortable feel, opposite to what a heart should do.

Opposites Attract

So my project at the moment is called Opposites Attract and i am studying the opposites of attract and repulse.

My main focus is based on the heart. We see hearts everywhere, and they are all based on the stereotypical love heart shape, i am doing the opposite and looking at a real heart.
