suicide notes

 In a tutorial with Elizabeth I mentioned how I was struggling with writing my text to accompany the images, Elizabeth suggested reading lyrics of depressive artists as a starting point, I began to look at lana Del Rey to begin with however i felt as though poetic depressive writing really was not my style after showing the notes to a few people on my course which of course would be my target audience, they agreed with me. As I began to develop my research per character I began to read authentic suicide notes some of those who were famous and some from unknown people, it was interesting to see that not all of the notes were depressive and it really showed character of which is what I liked about them. I decided to change my idea from writing short stories to suicide notes, reflecting upon this idea it fits in better with keeping the project to have a realism factor to it. The most intriguing notes have been reflected upon in blog posts regarding that suicide.

The wellcome trust.

The Wellcome trust is a charity dedicated to helping those with mental illnesses, the charity devising a body of ongoing research into subject matters such as depression and suicide. I feel as though it is important to include a link to this website on my website to ensure that if someone would like more information on the subject or would like to support the cause I can point them in the right direction.













 As I had no received a reply and I was extremely busy shooting regrettably I did not follow up the e-mail. However as The Wellcome trust also have a division of exhibitions- I feel it would be interesting if I was to develop my project further to be in contact to pitch my idea to them, with their help this project could develop on a much wider scale to help raise awareness through artistic visuals.
