The mode of practice I would like to experiment with consists of a combination between painting and installation. While I had made attempts to do this in the past during my A Level practice, I did not have full access to equipment and environments that are on offer to me at university.

I would like to produce large scale paintings of my subject matter and place them in both isolated and public environments to record the reactions of those viewing them. Primarily, I work in vivid oil paint to craft a dramatic impact, however, from ‘The Contemporary’ project, I have studied more outrageous works inspired by the artists Marilyn Minter and Betty Tompkins. The vibrant imagery, colour, and texture overwhelms the senses of the viewer. This could vary in effect depending on where the paintings are viewed. It might be useful to create an isolated booth of which people can view the piece alone as well as in a public space such as a café or shopping centre. Due to the graphic nature of some of my paintings, I would have to tone my imagery down to conduct this type of project; otherwise issues such as public indecency could be raised.
