brief

My project is a reaction to Britain’s culture of surveillance; Focusing on CCTV as one of the most overt forms of surveillance carried out on society and as it resonates with my work as a photographer. This project seeks to highlight the level of surveillance performed on us and also encourage the viewer to question its presence, the need for transparency and the legitimacy of this practice.

Through composite imaging I will create figures with CCTV cameras for heads and insert them into every day situations to see how the dynamic is changed when the mask of the camera is made apparent and the gaze is humanized.
