Vis Com - Narrative

 

An overwhelming start: - Too much of a wealth of images. 

Having struggled to begin the project based on creating a narrative, I forced myself to decide on a topic. "Unsettling matters on the domestic front". I then wittled my research papers down to four piles - girls - boys - backgrounds - materials. This really helped and I learnt that I should have done this a lot earlier in the day (everyone else brought in only 13 found images).

I created a narrative based on the one Bex Lui and I had made the previous day.

You read the images left to right like you would a book. 1. Woman is upset that her partner overworks and feels distant from him. 2. She misses him; yearns to see him, touch him; tosses and turns in her sleep through anxiety 3. She finds that he has been unfaithful in the time spent away from her. Her heart is stops as it has been broken. She now doubts any previous hope of marriage. 4. The relationship breaks down. Trust is lost. She feels trapped. 5. She splits up with him. She is now accompanied by the empty space that he once filled. 6. She now sleeps depressed and alone. There is a hole in heart now that symbolises the inabilty to love another fully (because she has now been betrayed).
