Artist statement, photography major

Prompt: written Artist's Statement. Your Artist's Statement should describe your creative process, interests, concepts, and vision. It should give the reader insight into and context for your work.

Up until now my work has been a reflection of the things that fascinate me. Taking a step back, I realize that the general atmosphere that I am drawn to is one of melancholy and nostalgia; a longing for all thing past and somber.

A somewhat of a cliché is death, but I can't help but to be fascinated by death itself and all it's derivatives: skeletons, anatomy drawings, time, mortality and infinity.

I try to experiment with different mediums ranging from acrylics and watercolors to tea stains. As for photography I work with both digital and analogue formats. I'm in love with analogue photography. I feel that analogue photographs capture beyond what is visible, bringing certain nostalgic feel to them, almost like physical memories.

I admire the way street art becomes part of cities and culture, influencing people. I realize that I tend to be self indulgent, but as part of society I would like to achieve work that is relevant and influential to the world of which am I part of, and this is something I'm currently working towards.


comments, suggestions?
Thanks!

This was beautiful, I was drawn into your artistic process...but the sentence " I feel that analogue photographs capture beyond what is visible, bringing a certain nostalgic feel to them, almost like physical memories" That's pretty much all I found wrong! Best of luck!

P.S- would you check mine?
