My project is called go to sleep my baby.
Over the 8 weeks I have explored the vast world of sleep. At the end of FMP I’m focusing on how private and intimate sleep is, everyone experiencing it uniquely. The act of sleep is something unkown, we mealy are living in our subconscious unaware of the world around us. It’s something so personal, we do do 1/3 of our lives yet what actually happens whilst we are sleeping is foreign to us.
In my final piece, which is: 4, 8 page publications following the 8 hours of sleep that each of my subjects had, a sleep audio following the different types of sleeper one could be and my 4 A1 sleep photographs im communicating the reality of sleep, whether good bad or mundane. I chose this as I think it’s interesting how unaware we are of the harsh reality, bliss or even basic routine, that other people see sleep as and i think it can be hard to grasp how different your version is so someone else and in these pieces i want to expose people to this variation.
