(PhD Studentship available at AUB http://www.modip.ac.uk/resources/PhD-Studentship)

This piece by Jenni Bailey is part of the BA Hons Fine Art project Wunderkammer

Construction, Deconstruction, Reconstruction,Artisan water soluble oil colours, household cleaners, bleach, household paint, ink.

Jenni says: Within this piece I attempt to examine the idea of recording the memory of an object, of demonstrating time and its effects on an item, and furthermore the contrasts between varying artistic styles throughout history – from something very particular, delicate and realistic to something more abstract. 

This piece is the final result of a short film investigating the idea of recording changes made over a period of time – this film looks at the construction and then deconstruction / reconstruction of a self-portrait.
