A video explaining the project and showing the volunteers reactions!
This was one of my favourite projects I have ever done! I asked some volunteers who I had never met before to get their loved ones to send me a one word text of a great characteristic that defined their volunteer. I used these characteristics to make representations (shown above) of each volunteer. They were kept involved with the process of making the image: each silhouette is each person, their favourite colours and textures/patterns used. Once I had made them I revealed them to each volunteer in the hope of a really great reaction of them feeling really good about themselves. I've filmed their reactions and will soon add a video of how they liked their images!
