Matchbooks


Here are some matchbox "books" I made for a book project
The photos inside are made from a camera which was made out of a matchbox.
I like the idea of placing the photos in the object it was made of because it fascinates me that
it is possible to take photographs from such simple materials.

Photography book "Belonging"


"Belonging" Photography book 


The book is about being our own individuals and constantly belonging to groups
I wanted to emphasise this by taking photos of groups which I then put in the book.
 I choose to cut out a rectangular shape on the page before the photo to communicate only one person from the group.

Ears cyanotype print

Photography of a ear print which has been made to a negative, 
then put onto acietate paper, and then developed with cyanotype chemical




About Me

My photo
London, United Kingdom
Im Emma from Gothenburg, Sweden. I live in London, and Stockholm. I study Photography at London college of communication after graduating from Central saint martins with Graphic design/photo which helped me develop alot and lead me to focusing only on photo. I find it inspirationable to study in London as I´m surrounded with lots of creativity and people with great ideas everyday. I find it important to be interested as a person to be able to do something interesting yourself. When it comes to art and photography I find it important to be open to recieve inspiration within any art form to create a broader understanding. This will make you more advanced within your own area of expertise. If your an actor, go and see dance, read books, go to exhibitions. It´s up to oneself how to develop that inspiration into something of your own. "The act of observing the experiment affects the experiment".
