Artist Research

Francesca Woodman

Woodman is a photographer who is known for her self portraits, often nude , of which are not in the usual sense . She distorts her images by having herself ‘hidden or obscured ‘ with slow exposure causing motion blur , creating a paranormal and unsettling aspect to her work , which I love .

Her work represent human fragility, as seen below of this self portrait of her , viewers can anticipate the next action , almost feeling the impact on their wrists .

[RESEARCH] Francesca Woodman

Photos by Francesa Woodman: Left; Untitled, Providence, Rhode Island, 1976-1977. Right; Yet another leaden sky, Rome, 1977. All works are found in her portfolio on Artnet.

Francesca Woodman (1958 - 1981) is an American photographer who specialises in black and white photography. She was known to use long shutter speeds and double exposure to achieve ghostly effects in her work. All her work is self-portraits and often has reoccurring motifs like skulls and mirrors.

Her life was depressing, which was reflected in her work. Her work was sporadic in nature and often had a sense of urgency to it. She was quoted saying “Am I in the picture? Am I getting in or out of it? I could be a ghost, an animal or a dead body, not just this girl standing on the corner …?” An underwhelming response to her work as a photographer and a failed relationship sadly ended her life, jumping off a building in New York, at the age of 22.

Her work is heralded in modern times, whereas her work in the 1900s went unnoticed due to how graphic some of her work can be.

Something that caught my eye with her work is the chaos you find within them. Her photos are rarely centred; perhaps this was because of the technology of the time. The chaos gives a bit of fun to a rather sad and depressing shoot which reflected her state of mind. Acknowledging the chaos, I would like to bring this forward my work.
