Today was the hand in deadline, with the digital stuff submitted on Friday I had only the physical works to submit in person. Also a quick drone mission on someone in the art school’s behalf. Topped off with a film dev in the bathroom..

My second year as a part time Level 4 (first year) student is coming to an end and all my work will soon be submitted. What have I learnt this year ? This quick overview lets you know how I’ve benefitted from being back at school..
This academic year I’ve been working on a project that involves manipulation and disruption of images. This post details where I started from and all the stars that aligned in order for me to produce something I was happy with.
I’d love to be Batman, fighting injustice in the world, but it’s not going to happen. Instead I’ll stand up for the rights of photographers who are told incorrect information regularly. No police involved this time.

A day trip to London for a Street Art exhibition and a wander around Battersea. All whilst making images on my camera that might come in handy to illustrate my whereabouts..
Semester 2 Week 10 saw us all sit down individually with Alice for a progress review of the academic year so far. Read here to see whether I’m on track or not. Warning: this post contains some rather blatant bragging and flexing.
This lecture contained a workshop on Book Binding so we can prepare work for display or sale and also some wise words and work on artist’s statements.
Time for my last Darkroom Session of the academic year. Some pictures of Birmingham and Blists Hill were made, after some trouble.
Alice asked us to consider display strategies for photographs and I looked back at the exhibitions I’ve visited this academic year.
Find out which one was the weirdest..
What would you think if you saw a poster for a Pest Control company stuck on a fence? Probably not the same as me anyway. What did I do this time?

An opportunity to go for a walk around the Wolves city centre with Instagram legend, Black Country Type. Who wouldn’t take up the opportunity?
Student competition for Ilford? Don’t mind if I do. See how I get on with creating some prints on Ilford paper from Ilford film..
Writing for a Student newspaper? Why would I spend time doing this? What would I even submit? Find out how I got involved, what I did and why I think it’s a great thing to have done.
For a book binding workshop I designed and printed a zine of images from University Of Leeds campus. Printed on Riso printer, why did I expend this much effort?
