Not the location of my first kiss
My final year project, Not the location of my first kiss, is about memories, sometimes misremembering, and mixing things up. I have concentrated on memories from the years before my first misremembered kiss and as the project is centred around childhood memories, I wanted it to have a playful element. COVID-19 restrictions dictated the type of project I could attempt. The still life images were made at home in the spare bedroom and as I currently live in the same town I spent most of my childhood in, I had some form of access to most locations. To date most of my portraits have been very straight forward, I wanted these to be a bit more constructed and have a performative element, my Mum stood in for everyone. Everything starts with a memory, from that a photograph is made and a piece of text written.
