Patricia Piccinini

Searching through blogs i came across the website for Patricia Piccinini and her husband who work as practitioners. I was mainly interested in Patricia who is a sculptor and photographer who has made peculiar images of children snuggling up to odd, walrus looking creatures.

Developmental Psychology

Thinking of Simen johan's imagery I started to think about why he thinks children have the dark thoughts so started to look at child psychology and found the obvious link to wikipedia which gave me a broad outline of the topic. I'm not keen on photographing children but rather teens and adults so I looked at the broad topic of Developmental Psychology. You can find the link to the wiki page here. I intend to read around the topic throughout this topic and then relate it to a darker side.

Simen Johan

For the last few years the work I find I have always been looking back at and becoming more and more fancinated with is the work of Simen Johan, he is a swedish photographer and the work that mainly facinated me was the work he did of children and their thoughts and darker sides. http://www.simenjohan.com
