About
Corrie Jennison is an artist and photographer, originally from the Highlands of Scotland where the environment around her provides the inspiration for what she does. Her work centres around detail; often small and intricate subject matter. Corrie is an avid photographer, working mainly in both small and medium format film. In addition to this, a huge passion of hers is drawing, and she enjoys incorporating this along with her love of different printing methods in her work.Much of Corrie’s photography contains symbolism, often leading back to the happiness and quaint atmosphere of her home environment. Sometimes even surrounding a magical and surreal feel to the photography.Corrie has now been working and learning as a photographer for six years, and has recently graduated from the Glasgow School of Art this year with a BA (Hons) in Fine Art Photography. Corrie was recently awarded an RSA New Contemporaries award for her Degree Show and will be exhibiting at the Royal Scottish Academy in Edinburgh next Year.Corrie works in both fine art and commercial photography with six years of experience using lighting studios and Adobe applications. She has also had the benefit of being able to explore the creative side of photography, and over the last four years of being a photographer Corrie has experienced the freedom of experimentation. Both these sides of photography has pushed her to become the photographer and artist she is today.
My series of photographic images conveys a surreal and unnerving waking dream. The work is based on it being psychically impossible to photograph our dreams, so what really makes an image ‘dream-like’? The techniques which were used when shooting these images are to evoke that dream feeling in the viewer, to let them interpret the work in their own way to relate it to personal experiences when dreaming. To create a magical realism where something feels ever so slightly off, the absence of something can be more eerie than the thing itself. A mixture of 35mm, 120mm and digital images.
