Project


My project had now developed into the death at the sea. I live on the coast so there's a lot of disasters that happened near me. A few of my relations were also killed in them. I will be talking about them in a different post.

I went down to a island close to me called Cruit Island. (Of the west of donegal) I went down wanting to make a body out of seaweed. I started off by making a body that looked like it was lying  in a coffin. I choose seaweed as it is very easy to get tangled in and if you get washed up on the shore it is likely you will be cover in seaweed. 
I really like this photo. I don't know why but it makes me feel quite disturb. 

I placed the body here because the tied was just after going out so it makes it look it was only lying there for a hour or so.


Me making the body!
Surpriseingly it took ages to make this!!


The crawling body

I love this one because its crawling to the shore for help. I wanted the body to be more 'real' looking but I like the way this turned out because you have to look at it for a bit longer to see what it really is and really doing. 
The body!
