Reality Vs. Reality looks at how natural beauty is often taken for granted. The people who live in beautiful. rural areas are surrounded by natural beauty everyday, yet never truly understand or appreciate it.

Within these images the photographer has used both a mixture of actual reality and a reflected romanticised version to emphasise the point that natural beauty really does exist and surrounds many of us everyday.

Viewpoint explores the idea of what is considered natural beauty, by visiting locations that have been socially classified as picturesque, beautiful places. However the focus here is directed away from the ‘attraction’ to explore the surrounding area and to question our perceptions of what it means to be beautiful.

These images were exclusively taken in and around the Forest of Dean, an oasis of tranquility located within the county of Gloucestershire.

 ‘Corpus Callosum’ considers the physical connection between the photographer, the location she photographs and how this environment changes and influences her thinking. Her relationship to the Forest of Dean enables her to create images which reflect the essence of escapism in which she seeks. This is then conveyed through the process of her image making. The link between place and photographic practice is reflective of Corpus Callosum which is the area of the brain where the logical and creative parts of the brain are connected.
