Finger nails


My idea is to photograph as many bitten nails and nail beds around the finger nails to collage together to make a big photograph.


  1. I am aiming to photograph as my nails (bitten finger nails, and nail beds)
  2. I need to re size and crop the image to make it life size, and make them all square. (1x1cm) 
  3. then print them out and cut them to collage onto another piece of card


so far i  have done 90 or so finger nails so far. I am aiming to get many more. 


this is to show how people with mental health such as, Anxiety, Compulsive disorders bite and hurt them self in pressured/stressed times.


This first collarge shows that i have left a great gap around my finger nails to see the out come of what looks best between the two




This second photograph I haven't left gap at all I just collaged them closely together 


This Experiment worked out that I thought the Collage with no gap at all looked and works the best within this image but I didn't go on to take this project any further as I started shooting other hoarding photographs, with guidance from Martyn.
