Origami!

I wanted to produce some origami for part of my final major project, however it didn't really fit in to the brief, although through my research i grew to love the art of paper folding, the patients and skill it takes is phenomenal, this is one of the piece that inspired me, origami with a message.


The Chinese describe a newborn as a sheet of blank paper, pure and innocent. Blank paper is empty but full of potential. Everyone begins life as a blank sheet of paper: what the paper becomes is determined by how it is manipulated

Fantastic!

 Paper, Life, Newborn

 Paper, Life, Work
 Paper, Life, Travel

Paper, Life, Marriage

Paper, Life, Lesiure



Paper, Life, Death

Whilst on holiday in November 2009, a gent  proposed to his now-fiancee. Here's how he  popped the question.

I think this is brilliant, although I bet she wanted him to do it the old fashioned way.








Chicken Wire Fun!

A series of sculptures and photographs in response to a brief with the title :

'Is there anybody out there? '

shot in a coffee shop at 7am... Caramel latte helped a lot.. especially when your the model and the photos hoot is at 7am the morning after your 21st Birthday.



A ticket can take you anywhere.


Used to travel a lot in my  first year of University, acquired a lot of train tickets, so instead of chucking them away i decided to make something out of them.
