Research • Nicky Bird

Nicky Bird created this set titled "Beneath the Surface/Hidden Place" based on four locations in Scotland. She said on her website "the history under our feet to the time when our own may be under foot in future; this was the central theme explores by this project. It set out to see how photography and archaeology could be incorporated in both literal and metaphorical ways to speak of 'history'".




I plan to use Nicky Bird as my main influence for this re-photography project, I love everything about this series, especially the way it has been edited. As mentioned in my Sergey Larenkov research, I plan to edit my images much like Nicky Bird's series, using opacity to blend my archive images into the modern day.
