After visiting the exhibition at the Tate Britain I am beginning to feel more confident about my topic, I also feel that this exhibition has helped me to generate new and different ideas and also the different types of presenting dereliction and decaying matter. I am continuing to plan and take photos and I would like to experiment with the use of different cameras for example; digital, disposable and also the camera on my phone as I am interested to see the different effects (if any) that this would have on my photos.
I have been looking up many different locations that I can visit to take photos in and around London, as finding these derelict locations was one of the problems I was to face as London and its peripheral areas are being regenerated and new buildings are being built all the time, therefore there is not many places that suffer from urban decay as there once was. I would also like to look at the interiors of the buildings I visit as well as the exterior to compare and contrast the two if I am able to do so.
Furthermore, I have found this week and those previous to be successful as I have been researching a lot into urban decay and its process and finding photographers and artists that I can relate to, I have also decided to look into radioactive decay and the Chernobyl disaster as part of my contextual research.
