(The Making of 'Itches') p1
These photographs were taken on set of the making of a collaborative film made by myself and arty friend Tobias Gill. The film, 'Itches' was set in a beautiful woodland area of Sheffield and took around 4 months to make. It was a beautifully creative process and time for me at that point in my life. I was nearing my final year of university and just beginning to delve into film and performance, I wanted to explore the depths of myself on a much deeper level than just painting or drawing, and I wanted to do so with another soul who was just as driven in that way as I was. We put a heck of a lot of ourselves into this film, in fact, we put all of our self into this film, both creatively, unconsciously, consciously and personally. Through the process of subconscious story telling and swimming into fairytale, and merging these aspects with reality..eg..exploring the woods both in our psyches and also in the open world..-we unknowingly entered along a path of self discovery. Itches explores the eyes and heart of a woman's psyche, soul and sexuality. I'll say no more..you can watch it for yourselves, here.. http://vimeo.com/35035382
