Rosebery Housing
A commission by the RHG (Rosebery Housing Association Group) to create four illustrations for their annual report that would reflect their outreach services to vulnerable people within the community.
The brief was to create a positive image – an image of working together for the benefit of all. My illustrations alluded to the end results of the association’s services without referring to the more obvious imagery associated with these.
This week I will be giving a talk at the University of Portsmouth (21/11/08) about photography & book design. Themes to be addressed are: the process of shooting and documenting, the design process involved from initial research to choosing type and paper and the production of books on the basis of my own work.
I was asked to contribute to the ‘inspirational pages’ for the recent issue (4) of ULTRABOLD – The Journal of St Bride Library. I chose Francesca Woodman’s ‘Some Disordered Interior Geometries’ (1981) that has inspired me in my own work. The article is now available online.
