Through the Looking Lens
Through the Looking Lens is a grid consisting of 288 photos arranged in a 24 x 12 framework in a
colour coded spectrum. The piece is essentially a photo grid which represents her daily visuals,
that which fall into her melting-pot of influences. The grid consists of a series of photographs she has taken of things that attracted her eye in the streets. Mostly urban art and doorways, she has captured through her shots, the world that she sees. She believes that each individual has a very personal way of seeing things, each person would therefore have his/her own completely different grid. “The things i shoot are simply the things I see...” she explains. Her photos are then carefully
wrapped around blocks of wood to create a mini artwork that works well on its own or in a small
series. The title Through the Looking Lens is a reference to Alice in Wonderland, another childhood memory she wants to impose on the viewer. Even her photographs have a childlike quality about them. Lulu is revealing to us her world the way she sees it everyday.
