Visual Studies - Shine a light

This visual studies assignment was based around projected images. A number of items were initially projected onto walls using an OHP. I have a special interest in hand made lace, and as some of the items were machine made lace, I used this as a reason to branch off into lace as a source.
I also photographed cobwebs with frost on, in the garden and used these as a source.
The idea was initially, to use black and white, with the designs being based around the silhouettes created by the projected images.
When the designs were taken into print, you could then reintroduce colour into the designs, but I decided against this and used monochrome for this assignment.
The prints were then subsequently embellished by various means to enhance the print.
