I was really excited to do this project because instantly my head was filled with so many ideas and I was so inspired by the trippy-ness from 'Enter the Void' and decided to try numerous things. I ended up choosing this image of a guy in his kitchen, whipping his hair around and adding the tri-colour effect. I took three images of Rob standing in different spots in his kitchen and then layering the images together in photoshop using the red, blue and green channels to add the crazy colours. I then messed around with the saturation and colour balance to take this image a step further and make it more extreme. The purple cupboards and the saturation of that purple create such a bizarre effect, almost like the cupboards themselves are growing some sort of abstract molding. I think this image I've created is rather surreal and I definitely have the potential to take it further and explore more. Maybe even take it outdoors during the day and night and see what kind of things I can create. Stepping away from people might help as well to create a more surreal affect projecting from the mind. Tricolour is really interesting to me and has recently been playing a big part in my work. I think that this image is a better direction for me in regards to just simple tricolour portraits. The colours represent more of a tri-colour effect and creates a better understanding of what tricolour looks like when the movements are subtle.
