A-LEVEL PHOTOGRAPHY

For her personal project, Imogen chose to focus on how people’s perceptions of themselves can be distorted, exploring creative ways to represent this through her photography. The image on the opposite page was created by experimenting with multiple exposures to give a sense of movement or restlessness. This effect could represent insomnia or the idea that people hide from the world when they feel anxious about their appearance. The photograph secured Imogen second place in the Midlands round of the ISA Awards.

The photograph above was part of a series of images Imogen produced to portray the lengths people go to to conceal their true appearance. The images were inspired by the work of photographer Cerise Doucéde who is known for creating elaborate scenes by hanging objects from the ceiling. Turn the page for more of Imogen’s work...
