MURNI KHALIESAH

Through my practice, I have found my interest in social issues relating to the identity of different individuals, communities or a societies. Recently, I have been exploring deeper into site specific works where I encourage the space, my works as well as the audience to work together to create the most appropriate experience. For my final year project, I am interested on the idea of how humans are so morbidly fascinated by tragic events. Inspired by my very own fascination with the macabre, I have spent time studying the visuals of various morbid situations such as crime scenes as well as horror movies which are created to intrigue us to look longer. Through researching, I recreate these scenes by using food and manipulating them to look like an authentic morbid scene. As a development of the series, I am working with animation to make parts of my photographs move.
