‘We should be angrier!’ is a line that’s been hitting me lately. Living in this world for twenty-odd years has left me numb, or maybe just used to a system that’s put profits above anything else.

Biggest expectations for the course
I want to come out of this course more skilled. I’m hoping the exchange or placement opportunities Portsmouth offers will let me meet experts, artists, and inspiring lecturers. And realistically, I need a job by the end of this.

Photo shoot
With a background from an art college, self portrait is often a task given. With so many chances to express ourself in all sort of medium. I felt that self portraits shouldn't to limit to faces , there are so many layers of a person.
Looking back to these work remind me of my lectures and friend's who helped me to create these pieces. It mark a time of our life.
Capture these image on a photography walk with Claire and my classmate focusing on reflection. This walk help me to explore the city more, to places i never know exist.
