Week Thirteen - Investigating Domestic Space

The new year sees further investigation of the theme of flaws in the domestic space; imprints left by its occupants; ghosts of its users; together with the collapse of the building through time. A journey through the house in space and time, as a metaphor for life, with the acid etching process in printing mirroring the decay of the building. Linking up my documentation of the process with the exploration of architecture, domestic environment and life within a nuclear family. 
I have taken new and revisited old photos of seemingly insignificant markings; some which disappear after the weekly house clean, but show evidence of human activity; some which are flaws in the building materials, or show wear and tear over time.
