Then encouraged to continue with the Fellowship.

Statement of Intent

The purpose of these photographs is to show how I explore the visual  potential which  every   object  has.  I  look  at a simple object knowing  that  there are many   possibilities in its forms, in its subtleties of colour, or in its textures when I record it.

Working on these  qualities  yields a series  of subjects  which can  please,  disturb, provoke or satisfy that is the objective. These images explores these visual  qualities further and shows how individual images can interact with each other to enhance  and  heighten   experience   of  conflict  and   feeling to the viewer.   The  square format  reinforces these feelings.

The intent is to be myself. I want my images to be personal and free of trends and fashions.

They are me.

Thanks

Rikki O’Neill was my mentor and friend through out the struggle. My thanks for being there Rikki!

A special mention to Keith Suddaby for his words and guidance, and all the others that helped in various ways.

Most of all Bernard for believing and his support and  determination for  me to succeed.
