Project Title:  Expression Through Abstraction 

 The theme for my project was ‘expression through abstraction’. I wanted to look at how techniques such as collaging, and abstraction of portraiture can give a piece an expressionist aesthetic. I started by looking at portraiture and the different ways in which I could abstract an image/portrait. I also wanted to incorporate the colour theory into my work as I believe that this helped me grasp the ideas behind giving my work more of an ‘emotional’ approach.
