DescriptionTwo digital films - A DAY WITH THE BIG BOYO KEV and SISTER SISTER
Description by artist:
An experimental go with the flow film about big Kev and what a day with him entails. The film is just about having fun and most importantly expressing yourself. My goal when creating my work is always about the approach to creating artwork which the one approach that I always feel is the most useful way to get your expression out is by going with your intuition. An initial idea is very important for example mine was the doll which I named Kevin. From Kevin, I went with my intuition and created a day with Kevin by getting him to do an everyday simple task and creating that clash with a dream world and real life which is a concept that im always trying to push and infatuated by. Having fun is always a top priority because if you're not having fun why are you even doing it. its all about role play Kevin started from a bit of fabric that i found and he then developed into a small doll and from me using the approach of going with my intuition it felt right to then create him into a big character as i grew to enjoy kevin and i think he brings joy to the world. Kevin is full of personality and thats why i wanted to create a film with him.
