PROOF 
Art by Alisha B Wormsley 



For the Summer project, I was inspired by a photo I saw on my friend's Instagram before re-deciding to quit social media again for my own sake and mental health since my dog passed away which somehow made me feel a little more creative on the inside whilst I've been having a creative block all Summer. Anyway, this photo inspired me for the idea of the installation as I've also been inspired by other installations that I haven't seen in real life.

Since I've already thought of a short film idea which I may want to become my 3rd-year film, I have stemmed ideas from that big idea to a smaller idea for this installation. Before university, I saw these installations at the MoMa in NYC which kept me inspired, but it always seems to pop back into my head. I started my research on people of color filmmakers as that is also a division in the film industry and also, being mixed-raced myself I find it quite difficult so I was curious to see the films made by other people of color too. Since Brexit is quite a new thing in terms of politics and has dramatically shifted race and nationalities to not be in a union like we were before 'Brexit' was bought up in this country, it has made a dramatic changed in how we view ourselves and each other.

Some websites I looked at:

My overall concept:

I looked at artists that used TV's as props to create their installation.

I feel that having one dancer in a white empty space helps the metaphor come together in terms of how I want the dance to be portrayed. This dance film will be portraying feminism views and also the feeling of becoming vulnerable to new people after experiencing toxicity socially (in relationships and platonic) and how scary it is opening up to people when you have trust issues (truama). I want to portray this by using ribbons and having three people whom aren't dancing in simple black outfits and the main dancer is a plain nude leotard like in Sia' dance music videos which Sia also portrayed toxicity in "Elastic Heart". I am mostly i...

For my work experience, I was going to work at a film based company that works around social media and creating content based in London. However, due to corona, my internship had to be cancelled until it's over. I am very close to this company already and am excited to start. I started looking around the beginning of the term for work experience. This company is based in Soho, but I got connections from my parents.
