[FISEA 1988] Artist Statement: Alison Sneddon — Premonition

Artist Statement 

Exhibition Art & Computers

My work involves exploring the nature of existence through photography aad related media. All my photographs involve using myself as a ‘representative’ of death. human existence etc.

I have been using the computer to merge and dissolve photographs either to distort them further or to produce ‘ghosted’ imagery. These new images are then projected onto myself again or projected onto three-dimensional relief moulds of my own self (i.e. death mask) and rephotographed.
