Project Proposal

For this project I will be looking at the subject matter 'the end of the world'. One idea that interests me in particular is the story of The Four Horseman of the Apocalypse. I have always been inspired by horror (in particular gore and skulls) and decided to look into this further. Some of the things that have inspired me to look further into this subject include things that I have grown up with, such as movies, games and television shows. The films that have inspired me to look more into this topic include Predator, Terminator, Alien and The Thing.

As I was growing up my parents played a lot of music that has influenced my current music taste and lifestyle, including bands like Guns n Roses, AC/DC and Metallica. This has prompted me to listen to music such as Suicide Silence, The Black Dahlia Murder and The Faceless. For this project I have taken the things that have inspired me through the years and focused them into the subject of 'the end of the world'.

For this project I will create a set of images on the subject of The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse and bring them into the twenty-first century. I will do this by looking at the illustrators and music that has influenced me throughout my life; I will use this knowledge and inspiration to discover, develop and utilise a unique style to create and showcase my final images.
