Refection Statement • Completing my experiments I have reflected on how I have learnt that in art I can create my own lens and manipulate aspects and media into my own style. I found theme of raw, powerful sexuality has been adapted through centuries of art, each artist putting their own twist on the subject matter. I have discovered that artists manipulate their expressions of people, place and objects to express their own personal viewpoint
