I went to see Christopher Bucklow’s work in Southampton and fell in love with the coloured images he creates. The identities of the people are hidden however I feel we get an idea of their personality/aura thanks to the colours that surround the silhouettes… This has given me the idea to add colour to my interviews in order for the viewers to differentiate the diverse victims and perhaps get a feel of their personalities but not their faces… red often represents passion or danger, we often associate green with the earth, purple with mystery… I will perhaps look into the different meanings of colours before I make any decisions!
By leaving room for the viewer to make up their own mind in their own “identity” could be a good move forward for the project.
Best,
Steve
