Hannah Wilmshurst

photography/ print/ visual design

I am fascinated by the daily routines we abide by and the way in which we conduct ourselves. Questioning the role of surveillance; I aim to facilitate the act of looking. I try to blur the boundaries between what is real and illusion by heightening elements of distortion and perspective. I expose feelings of vulnerability for both subject and viewer and ultimately reveal our inherent desire to be a voyeur.

I source inspiration from: Martin Parr, Sophie Calle and Edward Hopper.
