Design Statement:
This photo series delves into the intricacies of the human form through compositions, tex- tures, and colour. The images express the beauty of movement through flow, form and shape. The colour palette is raw, but rich. Earthy in tone, pops of blue and orange con- trasting with the rawness of earth. The oranges and browns, discordantly contrasting with pale blue, were inspired by recent runway collections and forecasts. This palette provides a stripped back look, complementing the styling choices and ensuring that the shape and form of the body is the focal point of every image. These colours provide a sense of free- dom and expression that aligns to feelings that movement provides.
