Grace Kelly

What are your biggest influences?

Mainly photographers and artists on Instagram. They have a very big following for artists that celebrate different shapes and races. There’s an Italian photographer called Sara Larusso; She’s taken photographs of her body since she was 16, documenting all the changes that happened to her body. She also explores photography by using flowers and fruits to reference female sexuality.

 

 

 

 

 

 

What do you like most about the studio?

I like how we’re not fixed in one place; we can just move around. It’s very free-flowing, because in here we all work with film and photography it’s easy to get around.

 

How has your work changed?

It’s always been based around feminism, and female empowerment, but now I’ve honed in on one element, and that’s the body. I was looking at Femme Fatales at the beginning of this year, but I felt it was too historical to work on, I wanted to work on something more current and relevant to all girls.

 

What are your plans after graduation?

Hopefully work in a studio in Leeds, working with other artists who are influenced by the same stuff that I am. I want to continue working with the same topics.
