So after experimenting with different processes throughout the time doing the FMP, I looked through all of my work and I have weighed up the differences between each processes. I personally wanted to do the series all surrounding the general feelings of mental health and how it can affect people but when I did the experiment of editing the image but have it not having a mouth. I felt like this was menacing and really shown what the effects of mental health is for different people. This could affect others in certain ways. But the way I wanted to display this was by having the dark side of mental health to be portrayed to a viewer. Therefore, I chose the following three images to be shown in the exhibition. I feel like these images were really successful for what a viewer would want. I think that they are used to convey the message successfully. Before we were putting the images up for the exhibition, we had to create an artist statement mine is as follows: Access to Higher Education Diploma (Art & Design – Graphics, Media & Photography) Name: Bradley Graham-Whitehouse Title of work: I Tried to Scream Destination: Stafford BA (hons) Photography Bradley Graham-Whitehouse is an aspiring photographer who likes to experiment with varied mediums to produce images which have deeper meaning to bring light onto taboo subjects. During his FMP, he gave himself the subject of mental health. He decided to use different processes and cameras to allow himself to develop his own style of work. This short series of photographs were taken to show the emotional pain of mental health. Like many other artists, he uses self-portraits within his work to help him process how he has felt in the past with his mental health. He likes to explore the darker side of mental health to encourage others to talk about their mental health.
