Progress review.....



Well had my progress review the other day, and I was expecting a slap in the face but instead I was given pretty good advice that actually made sense,,majestic! I was advised to go back to my research and take some more pictures as my work seems to be kinda "finished pieces".
 I think I'm going to go into churches in the next day or two and photograph the statues inside and them make drawings from these photographs, but with my own slant on them. Modernising them or urbanising them in the spirit of the project. Maybe drawing them with tattoos or duuurty make-up or my personal favourite, leopard print (tack central!!)
 I have already taken a number of photographs of my Dad's hands with some gang tattoos drawn on them with a shitty pen, and photographed just his hands in prayer and holding rosary beads. I wanted to look at the idea  of something urban and sometimes frowned upon and combine it with religion and show how sometimes the two can be quite closely linked.
