What is the thesis going to be about?

With this essay I will attempt to unfold my artistic practice. Along my visual practice some theoretical aspects will be included. Together these two threads form the core of my practice. This text will provide an insight to my methodology as well as a documentation of my graduation work. In chapter one I will identify my interest in photography and unpack my former practice and methodology. In chapter two I will carve out the shift of narration by moving away from representation and using found images in my work over the past two years. The third chapter comprises a description of my intended graduation work. The conclusion eventually reflects the process towards the current work.
