I was selected for a photography project at Photofusion Photography Centre/Gallery in London which was really exciting. First I had to show them my portfolio of photographs, and do an interview to be accepted, which I was. During the project I took urban photographs around the area with cameras I have never used before, both in black & white and in colour, all under time constraint. The first day of shooting was freezing cold; I was not dressed appropriately and the trains were delayed so I was nervous. I had the commuting problem all during my BA, my MA and now on this project. Basically being the only person commuting from far away, with trains constantly delayed, and dealing with the bad weather, floods and all, but I did it. I remember my course directors at uni and other students telling me that they were really impressed with my determination to complete the course and do well, despite the long distance commuting. Anyway I was really happy to be selected for this photography project that culminated in an exhibition. I spent some time developing black & white photographs in the darkroom & doing some camera-less photography.
Below are a selection of the photos I took on the project.
For part of the project we had to select items that we carry with us that say something about ourselves, see below a sample of my camera-less photography.
Below are three of my camera-less photographs that were selected for the exhibition.
