Whoa!!! Does the technical sounds  complicated or what?
S
hall we explain then luv? and so we shall. I simply print this life size, and was contemplating the enviroment where to put it . I choose the lift on the residence where i life. so after puting the nails on its time to mount it .

I tell ya i have fun with people asking what im doing in the lift. and the most Fave Ask Question was:
        "Where is the rude bit?" and the answer is there is not bloody rude bit on my work!                                   

theres also  a cute guy on the 6floor that ask me out for a drink the next week to help.                                            being on the a constant running lift up and down for 1 hour really does my headin'.
after that comes the tricky part for taking the pic of it. i cant ask the management to shut the lift down for my own sake when theres 11 floor of people wanting to used it constantly. so i  have to fucking sty for another hour up and down the lift taking the shots. and another thing is that i ahve to used the 28mm lens to capture the whole of the lift. was having problems with the constant shutting door.
I took this for my presentation so i did it on slide film. not realizing that things would turn green on tungsten light.
the reason  why i choose to use the lift was to match the shade bw prints and the metalic surrounding of it.of course this was what i had in mind. and then came out from Joe Basement Lab(wicked 24 hour print in London) with much surprise. but it wasnt a dissapointment at all. it kinda give another eerie atmosphere to the picture. so i  have to say  i am most pleased with it. what do you think?
