I am interested in the work of Alex Andreyev, a Saint-Petersburg based artist, who produces some very interesting and surreal images. His series of work named "A Separate Reality" depicts an unusual, fantasy world, and consists mostly of digital photographic manipulations or constructed graphic images. His images I have included in this post are of a more photographic nature, which I am interested in.

I find these images particularly striking, as they show a world that is so real, and so different at the same time. The twist on reality is intriguing and is something that I would like to explore in my project work; the idea of a fantasy world, but on which is so close to our own.

Transitional Spaces

As an introduction to the Transitional Spaces module we were asked to create a piece of work about our interpretation of the theme. The final video, as displayed here, is made up of images taken by another working group, and we were asked to create a short film with them. They chose to use bridge as their subject, as a literal interpretation of the theme. To try and add a feeling of movement, we switched between two similar images very quickly and this gave a spooky feel, and changed the feeling of the original photographs.
