Small Stories
Description of my Current Work
I shot this current series of photographic stop motion animations titled small stories while on an artist residency with the Visual Artist Association of Iceland (SIM) August 2008.
This work is primarily concerned with storytelling. The stories told are about everyday life in suburbia. Our everyday lives are set out and determined by the society in which we live. Social norms are adhered to, rules are followed and our day to day lives our modeled by our environment.
This work highlights this fact by focusing on the individual within this environment. By detailing the habitual actions of the individual this work tells a story that is personal to the individual but also reflective of society as a whole.
