During this term, I have come to better understand re-photography and recording archives. I am continually finding new material to include in my project. recently I discovered letters kept inside an old book. One was from my Dad to my Mum on their wedding day. I did wonder if I should use such material but I think it’s important for the story. In the text, he mentions white heather and Laura suggested I might look at this and perhaps photograph heather as a still life. I can also expand this if other letters suggest things.
In the text, my Dad says ‘Keep your Pecker up’ which is a phrase I have never heard him use. I may use this as a subtitle to my project.
