One of my favourite pieces from my project is my Jonathan Yeo style portrait. For this piece I decided to focus on the view of police violence from an alternative perspective - an outsiders view. The expression I captured within the painting demonstrates the distress caused from observers when this type of racist violence occurs. Within the background, I focused on the theme of police lights reflecting onto the observer. 

For my photography I wanted to develop my idea of police lights. in order to create the coloured lighting effect, I used a set of sheet gels that I placed over the light source in the photo room. 

The effect of the gel sheets are seen in these photographs - I loved how these pics turned out as I think it effectively translates my main message of police violence (and the police car lights).

For my third photo shoot for this project, I decided to focus on graffiti and street art as a form of visible protest. In order to produce this photography I went into Manchester and photographed any colourful, cool, and interesting street art I saw. I love this collection of pics as the colour within the photos are so vibrant and strong.
