Sacred Lights

Every Image Has A Story - "Sacred Lights"
From Laura:
"I'm currently looking in to the world of magical thinking, that of belief systems be it regarding religion, superstition, obsessive disorders and advertising, each of which controls the thinking of an individual by potentially negative assumptions i.e I am not worthy/guilt/sin/ideals.
I have been looking at stained glass windows and how they are installed to let only sacred light through them in to the vacinity of the holy area, whilst depicting holy scenes or preaching holy scripture as to how one should behave and live their life, this in turn had me look at billboards and how they too preach 'scripture' and depict how one should behave and live their life. So to the job in hand I set out for my first project : to transform a bus shelter billboard (lit at night) to a stained glass window asa comparison between the two 'sacred lights'"

Hello Loves!

Well its the last term of my degree and the studio is already open in the last week of the holidays for us 3rd years only. Its nice and quiet cos only a handful of us bothered to take advantage of this!!
A rogue 2nd year has left an obscene sculpture in my area, I cant be bothered to move it because the guy is such an arse and life's too short!
Have a look at my other blog to see what I'm up to.
Cheers :)
