Body Language- Many Artists have used their observations of body language to express moods and emotions. Examples can be seen in the work of William Blake, Edgar Degas, Ernst Barlach and, more recently, Sam Taylor-Wood. Look at appropriate examples and, from your own observations, develop a personal response.

Other questions included two subjects that I have explored before, Urban Societies (in my Unit three project) and Art as propaganda (in my unit two project). The only other question I had an interest in was The closely observed, but I felt that this subject would be limited to focus on.
Although I am not a very accomplished portrait artist, I have ventured into oil paintings and other traditional media. However, in this particular project I would like to focus mainly on photography. Having said this, I don't think I will use any of the artists mentioned in the question its self- except perhaps Sam Taylor Wood. Most of the artists mentioned are very traditionalist painters- a form of art that I don't enjoy and cannot emulate. Instead I have chosen artists such as Frida Karhlo, Igor Savchenko, Rudolf Bonvie and susu Larchoche. Despite being predominately photographers, I don't feel limited to only creating photography responses to them as some of their work lends its self to other medias such as sketching, print making and digital manipulation.
