202

I want to toy and research into the theme of misguidance and false happiness; being made to believe things of which are not true. People filling your head with fairy-tales and feeding you untruths which can actually lead one to happiness, but that of a false happiness.
This has come about from being inspired mostly by the Greek, art-house film Dogtooth.  So the way in which I plan to do the above will be by looking into the meanings of misguidance, gullibility, lying and such subjects of similarity/interest.
Then the outcome will be a small series of multiple-exposure photographs depicting the way in which being given such misguidance and being fed such false truths can still potentially give one what one might feel is true happiness and contentment because that person would be oblivious to anything other than that false security. I will have a more personal take on this project by the way that I will be introducing a fashion/fine-art aesthetic through the over-laying/multiple-exposing, the subjects used and the styling of the subjects, the way in which I decide to scale and compose and through the props used to achieve my portrayal of a ‘mind full of false hope’.
