Life’s A Gas was less precise and more fluid in its
assemblage. Moving away from the scalpel, I simply used
my hands to tear through the images. World of Interiors and

Journal were used as my source material. I used an A3 
sketchbook as I wanted to work with larger scale images. 
The centrepiece depicts a woman’s profile, she exhales 
smoke and her head is framed with an oven. In the 
background I included black and white images and the 
ambiguous blue figure beneath her; one, to juxtapose and 
emphasise her presence within the space and two, to 
compliment the hues of blue and green.
