Artists like Sophie Calle and Frances Stark, who have also looked to romantic love as material. Also someone like Anne Collier who deals with ideas around cliché. Myfanwy McLeoud, who looks to elements of nostalgia and her own personal history and memory as material.

I have been reading a variety of materials on and related to ideas of Romantic Love, from wedding blogs themselves, to academic texts, to more scientific books on how and why we love. I also recently visited a wedding fair here in Rotterdam, where I made notes and videos of both the vendors and the attendees. Since TV and film also informs a collective idea of romantic love to many, I plan to move in from this angle as well. I’ve been trying to corral/collecting all of my material into one place, and have subsequently created a website for the occasion called Champagne Princess. [[File:http://champagneprincess.weebly.com]] I hope the website is something a bride to be might come across and think for a second might be something she could use.
