CAITLIN MORTON

For my creative independent project, I decided to focus on the theme of “Ethereality”. I have chosen this theme because it has always been something that I have had a keen interest in, what has interested me the most is the idea of innocence allowing me to pursue this in my future career as a photographer.

For research I have looked at variety of fashion photographers such as Miles Aldridge and Tim Walker, I have also collaborated with fashion students to experiment with projection and a variety of intrepid designs. My body of work for the exhibition was based on the idea of documenting a subject that visualises the surreal and creating a fictional narrative using various props, colour schemes and styles. I want to create an atmosphere within the image that suggests something ‘otherworldly’ and uncanny.
