Personal Project; Decay - Performers

Ashley James Bunn’s artwork appealed to me inherently as I found his pieces to be hauntingly eye-catching. I liked the used dark colours were used within his work and how the image itself almost looked to be fading away and decaying. I thought that this concept would work well within my own work, with perhaps past events that happened in The Winter Gardens – such as actors, and most recently dancers and musicians who have performed to raise money to reconstruct and redecorate the decaying building. I thought that by creating images of performers and causing these to fade and drip would show how the theatre was once active and enthralling with performances.
