I began this project by going for a walk around my local area, I had just moved into a new house so this also helped me to get to know my surroundings and so on.
I was feeling quite low throughout this week and so went for a walk to try and clear my mind. I was in the car with my boyfriend a few days beforehand and saw the opportunity of the fog is a way of explaining to him what ‘brain fog’ feels like, it’s difficult to see ahead of you and everything feels quite confusing, so when I went for the walk I remembered this analogy and decided it would be a good way to try and describe it to those who have never dealt with this before.
I was quite pleased with the outcome of the photoshoot as I feel the images are quite strong and demonstrate a sort of gloomy feel. I would like to experiment with layouts by adding archival images of my childhood which, hopefully, will add contrast to the project.
I felt a lot better after coming back from the walk.
