theory

I have been making some substantial gains in my theory and I am making the changes that I was asked by my advisers to make. My theory has opened my eyes and doors hopefully I now see just how important it is to substantiate your work through your theory. I have been struggling with the theory but today I feel like I have taken a step towards finishing this time around.

book review


I finished reading the book titled Passionate Camera and I think it's interesting in the sense that there are existant visual forms of photography that captures the body differently from the so called 'norm' of documentary photography. I enjoyed the essays by the different writers and they are quite insightful about queer culture.

residency

I can't seem to be able to choose which residency to apply for as there are lots of opportunities and I think of what fits my profile. I have been recently exhibiting some off the pin-hole photographs at Bendana Pniel gallery in France, Paris and I am chuffed about it. I have been thinking about the feedback from the shows, and I have heard that they are good.

review exhibition

I think that the feedback fro the review was good. Some of the suggestions were to frame the pin-hole images differently and maybe try and resolve them. Marislov Lichi is someone to look at if you want to build you own ideas again.
