Still life isnt a subject i have found very easy in the past. Finding the right subject is tricky. After looking through pieces of art and photography, i have noticed a common theme with most of the work ive looked at. The releation between the subject matter and current economic issues or class statuses is something i can relate to as a student. Moving out and becoming more independent, wether it be with financial issues or otherwise, is something that i would like to try and explore with this project.
Whilst trying to work out some ideas for my subject, i thouht of the work "Campbells Soup Cans" by Andy Warhol. The work technically isnt a still life, but it got me thinking about the sort of basic foods i will be living on as a student. Maybe making a selection of images based around the basic ownbrand foods that ill probably be living on for the next 3 years.
