This image links to play as books are a frequent source of entertainment for me. It also links to heritage because these are all LGBTQ+ books, that I have arranged as a rainbow, and they have been important to me and my identity.

My images are about what I and my friends do for fun. We play but as adults. This comes with a few benefits like being able to drive and not having to ask for permission to leave the house. Therefore we take full advantage of our age!
The photos I am sharing follow our day of exploring and riding. We walked, sat, talked and road all along the hilly cliffs of Compton, Isle of Wight.

This picture is trying to explain that playing is for all ages and you can come back to it at any time and have a flood of memories come back to you.

I took this image during the Photoworks 'play' workshop, I was playing around with reflections when I took this of my Doctor Who funko pop. I think the reflection from the paperweight I used as a lens captures the atmosphere of Doctor Who which has been a significant part of my childhood and heritage.

I wanted to explore the idea of play through imagination - the model may be sitting on a stool in front of a camera in real life, but in her mind, she is dreaming of being in a fairytale.

Hide and Seek - Haunted version.
The catcher have to hide under the cloth while counting down, and walk around with it in the dark when the time is up.
It is one of my favourite childhood game as it is very thrilling for both the catcher and the hiders.

I have chosen the theme of 'play'. This piece is based on our generation now, with their obsessive nature with technology and how sometimes they know more than the adults! I wanted to portray this theme through an outsider's perspective, looking at a child being engrossed in the life of social media.

I took this of my dog buster playing with his favourite ball! The mirror I actually bought from an antique store in Bolsover when visiting the castle.

This piece is called " Tower of Books". I explored the idea of sequencing and collaging through photography to tell a story. This piece shows a 10 grided photography of books stacked on top of each other, until the very end where it falls. I wanted to showcase what a person might do when they are bored and have a lot of freedom, especially during the COVID-19 lockdown, and that is why I entered this piece under the theme "play".

This image links to play as books are a frequent source of entertainment for me. It also links to heritage because these are all LGBTQ+ books, that I have arranged in a rainbow, and they have been important to me and my identity. For this image, I also included a few other objects that link to the expression of pride and I really like the composition.
