Description
This was a step on from ID3 and JO3 for my A2 specialist project. I built a wooden box, painted the inside white and stuck it in the common room. Anyone who wanted to could have their picture taken in there however they wanted. When I had 36 i printed them all off and arranged them so the people interacted, ie the girl calling to wake up the sleeping girl. people mirroring poses etc.I had great fun making this and it went into an exhibition i did for the end of this project i've been doing called "Artists of the Future" with the council.
I have a photographer friend who has a big wooden box in his studio, so if anyone can get themselves to Nottingham and wants box pictures of their own, check out/contact

That is such a wonderful idea! The way you arranged them is really interesting and my brain starts to weave a story out of the different actions and poses and the arrangement.
Wonderful job! Instant favorite!

This is so neat! Why are they all girls? (common room, I'm assuming, at a school like a girls' floor?)

Now you just have to create a huge sculpture and hire people to live one in each box for a week. This idea = turner prize.

haha, not quite yet! but would be great fun to do. like a ton to tracey emin/derren browns on top of each other. thought is a bit prison-ey though. imprisoned by peoples perceptions maybe? lol.
