Under Wraps

My work is an exploration into concepts of hiding or obscuring elements of an image, with the intention of creating a sense of intrigue about what lays beneath the blank layers of each piece.

I hope to make the viewer inspect the individual objects in an attempt to see the full picture.

It is this in-between state that my work aims to promote and sustain, encouraging the viewer’s curiosity to see the image in its entirety, at the same time suggesting their interest could be lost if they did.

I want to leave the decision up to the viewer. See below for the full image.
