CONFESSION-
When I think of confession, I not only draw upon images of shame, and feelings of guilt, but also of rejuvenation. With these characteristics in mind, I believe a project following a theme of confession should show both the strain and tension of getting out something you have intentionally suppressed, while simultaneously (or perhaps through sequential narrative), demonstrating the positive senses that come afterwards. A potential project that would encompass these elements could include an extremely unattractive blob of rubber bands, hair, and darkly colored resin, with a plant, or something that aids the calling of images of growth, protruding from the mess. When thinking about this, I imagined the messy blob to be like what a hairball is to a cat, something that must be coughed up. Maybe ill incorporate a cat (fake one of course) somehow.
SEQUENCE/ NARRATIVE-
For sequential narrative, I think it would really fun to mess around with stop animation, something I’ve never tried. Drawing inspiration from the work on www.blublu.org
ALTERNATE PERSONAS-
I think for this theme, doing a project revolving around disguises would be interesting. Rather than looking at alternate personas as a deep, multi-sidedness in personality, I think it would be cool to have a photographic collection of someone in various disguises, in places that would seem ridiculous for the given wardrobe (i.e. me, a surfer, wearing my wetsuit in the Davidson Library, or someone wearing a suit laying on the beach).
PERSONAL SPACE-
A full size human cocoon…’nuff said (invasion of the body snatchers anyone?), however, customized as one would their room, complete with posters, lamps, music (making this project a very multimedia piece).
