Shadows.

I am fairly sure that i am going to try and create my moving image piece using shadow puppetry, this will enable me to create work in quite a quick, free way so as to complete the project in the little time i have left.
The idea behind using shadow puppets is to create this silly fear we had when we were little, and the curiosity of the shadow. The shadow having a mind of its own like in Peter Pan.



It is, again, a way of blurring the lines between real life and the fears we face in the world. The image we see cast by the shadow is real, but it is only a copy of itself, therefore not real. I'm not sure i've worded that very well...
