For my final project I wanted to play with positive and negative spaces in the composition using dark colors to create on illusion of hollowness. In the photo series of my ex ray projected on myself I wanted to portray feelings of isolation through the hollowness of the skeletal form.

For this project I photographed the abandoned Lisa Frank building here in Tucson, Az. I wanted to capture the desolate environment surrounding the colorful building that can evoke a off place feeling. The artificiality and damaged parts of the building cracking through the bright colors can be representative of something that was once alive and is still standing.

In this series I explored the juxaposition of wearing formal wear while doing a workout such as boxing. The playful aspect of wearing a full dress and high heels leans into the absurdity of the act. To feel silly and tap into a place of whimsy, reeling back to the days of childhood when we would let our imagination run wild and play dress up. Ridiculousness adds a levity to the stress of everyday life and is a simple reminder to have fun.
