Me as a 4 year old

A photo taken of me for the local paper in Gisborn  I have no idea why,but I found the clipping at my Granddads. 

The Idea behind move me.

I never always dressed the way I do, infact I never used to really care. Untill the passing of my grandad. I had attended his funeral in our home town where I grew up till I was seven, but had not returned to for years. While at the funeral I was looking at my grandads old things I noticed he had awards for competing in many disabitly sports as he was blind he achieved so much. Amongst his things I found his old blazers and ties, something about them felt right. I had given them a wear and had never felt so comfortable in clothes. Some would say I had a midlife crisies with all this change. This project I have aims to show a small evolution of myself from what I was to what I am now. 

About Primitive Vs Civilized

Primitive Vs Civilized

Last year I was given two oposing words (Primitive and Civilized), and with the two words  I had to photomanipulate two images and merged them together to create one image. I applied the way I dressed and an image of a monkey. To create the self portraits.
