GASH work

I was given the word 'play' and asked to visually explore its different connotations. I decided to look past the obvious ideas of children and toys, but instead to look at a slightly darker meaning. I wanted to explore the word in the context of mentally playing, not physical playing. Then after looking in to synonyms such as 'game', 'risk' and 'gamble', I came up with the phrase 'trick of the mind'.

This piece uses different materials and techniques, again relating experimentation to the theme. Using brown manilla paper as a background and acetate film layering makes it look more interesting and creates some distortion, then combined with sharp stamped lettering and digital print outs.
