old photographs...
Sanpshots of Christina attempting an escape from the exhibition space dressed in a German army uniform> using textures in Photoshop to digitally age a snapshot of Christina...
I took a series of photos of abandoned and weathered buildings in Nottingham to use as textures for my own artwork at a later stage... to make digital art seem more organic... the human touch that was on display in the handmade magazines from the POW exhibition has also inspired some experiments with text and image... I will use the old Olivetti typewriter that I picked up in a junk shop...
