These are my final sequence images for what's in my bag. From this you can see that my bag is clearly a work bag as it has my ID badge. There are a variety of pens that would suggest I do something with writing. There are tissues, various packets of cigarettes (so clearly I like to smoke), glasses (I can't see properly), some stockings and an umbrella (Pessimistically always prepared for rain!). I think that this piece does give an idea about who I am and the things I carry round with me everyday. I like the bag contents as it shows things I can't do without each day, the things that I carry through life and feel that I need. Perhaps another project would be to start removing things from my life to see if I can do without them - find out what's really important!
Photographically I think these work well however I think there are other projects that have done this even better I particularly liked the Artist Hans-Peter Feldmann he paid women £400 for them to put the contents of their bag into a museum exhibition. Check out this link:
Hans Peter Feldmann Exhibition
this artist did this as he was interested in women's handbags as the contents of his own Mother's handbag was strictly taboo and he wanted to explore this through the work. I like the idea that he paid the women to do this and reveal their lives through objects.
