Solarised Projection

A monochromatic studio series using projection to map abstract, geometric patterns onto the human form. By solarising the imagery, the work blurs the boundary between subject and surface, creating a shifting interplay of light, shadow, and contour.

Screened

A study in studio projection, layering digital artifacts across the contours of the face.

A black and white photograph of a person seen from the back and side, with their arms raised behind their head. A projector light creates a pattern of horizontal bands across the subject's skin and hair, creating a high-contrast solarised effect against a dark, textured background. — Interference
Projected wave patterns on skin, studio capture using solarised light distortion.

A black and white solarised image of a person seen from the side, standing with one hand on their hip. Patterns of vertical stripes are projected over the body and the background, creating high-contrast graphic lines across the skin and surrounding space. — Interference
Projected light mapping the contours of the body, captured in the studio.

A person viewed from the back and side, shown against a background of dark, diagonal lines. A solarised image of another person is projected over them, blending their form with light-coloured silhouettes and harsh, high-contrast shadows. The person's hair is wavy and light, and their hands are raised near their chest. — Interference
Projected light breaking over the skin during a studio session—the body as a site for overlapping ghosts.

A black-and-white studio photograph of a person, partially obscured by a geometric, grid-like projection. The light is high-contrast, with dark solarised shadows cutting across the face and torso. The person is posed with one hand near their head, looking towards the camera with a serious expression. — Solar Grid
Projected lattice work dissecting the frame; the studio light collapsed into high-contrast monochrome.

A black and white high-contrast studio photograph featuring a person partially obscured by geometric, solarised light projections. Sharp angles, blocks of black, and thin white lines overlay the figure, who has their hands raised near their head. The subject's form is fragmented by the light, creating an interplay of solid shapes and organic curves. — Geometry of Flesh
Projected solarised patterns mapped across the form in the studio, disrupting the visual boundary of the body.

A black and white studio photograph of a person from the chest up, posed against a geometric backdrop. A projection of repeating cubes and angular patterns overlays the subject's skin and the dark background. To the left of the subject, a bright, solid white silhouette of a figure is cast onto the wall, while the subject stands facing forward, hands held near the chest. The image has a solarised, high-contrast aesthetic. — Solarised Geometry
Projected light mapping over form—a studio exploration of negative space and intersecting cubic patterns.

A black and white image showing a person from the waist up against a background of draped fabric. The image is processed with a high-contrast solarised effect that makes the skin appear metallic and glowing. The person has their arms raised above their head with elbows bent, looking slightly downwards to the side. — Solaris
A projector-based studio experiment, using solarisation to invert the tonal values and trace the body against heavy silk drapery.

A black and white image of a person standing against a draped fabric backdrop. A high-contrast projection of a human silhouette is cast over the person's body and the background, creating overlapping forms and solarised light effects on the skin and fabric. — Double Exposure
Projected light mapping a silhouette onto the body, captured in a studio setting.
