Anna Higgie
While beginning my contextual research, Anna higgie is an artist who's work has embodied all the qualities i have been looking to represent in my own practice. Her collage based pieces where my main source of inspiration, Higgie uses a strong combination of bold shape, optical patterns and reflections of identity within her collages, aspects that related strongly to how my ideas have developed since investigating the word duality. What I hope to be able to extract from the inspiration i have gained through Annas work, is the connection of shape, using a variety of line qualities, materials and photographic sources to intertwine singular ideas and refrences into one collaged piece.
Chris Nicholls
Fashion Magazines May 2013 issue, hosted an amazing editorial by Fashion Photographer Chris Nicolls. The high contrast lines and shapes Nicolls expressed through his photos and editing offered me such a strong source of inspiration. I have begin to see the extent of how effective the simple idea of positive and negative can be, combining and reversing black and white to create almost optical like pattern. This is an idea that i feel can relate really strongly to my architectural research and i plan to experiment with translating and representing the shapes extracted from my photographs with this approach.
