After deciding I would never be able to collage my actual home I began thinking about making a mini environment. My first ideas were to create it in a shoe box or making an enclosed environment, but then I was very luckily offered an old dolls house by a friend.
These are the photographs of the house on the day that I got it, it’s quite an imposing house, run down and dark in colour giving it a slightly macabre feel to it. This was perfect for me as I love the creepy feel to it and old fashioned look, the wood inside has deteriorated a bit and the windows are grubby and cracked. I won’t be making a Merz house or a 3d collage, just collaging a found object, making a house of images.
