I began looking at human emotion, collecting photographs of people laughing, frowning and being caught off guard, and studying them through drawing. Recent lectures have sparked an interest in simulation and the difference between a true emotion and a staged emotion. I asked friends to laugh on cue while I photographed, the results were awkward and unnatural, an obvious fake emotion.
I've used screen-printing as a starting point because I like that I can print more then one image over the other, in order to simulate the movement of my subjects without using film.
