My grandad gave me a book a couple of years ago, that he used to read when he was a child. I felt to link to the recurring theme of decay, I chose to have book paper coming through a lot of the papers, as it links to Pam Glew and Jasper James' work, where they have the portrait style silhouette pieces and I had used a lot of that style work at the start of my folder, so I thought I would bring in a few artists within the background, as Pam Glew works on top of book pages and so does Florian Nicolle, which again brings in another artist - linking my folder pages to my chosen artists.
My Grandad also used to read this book to me when I was younger, so I feel like this brings in another personal element to the project. Also, the book of photos that I have produced using a japanese stab binder to create the holes, I have covered the outside pages in the book pages, to replicate my Grandad and his personal life.
