A LEVEL FINE ART ELISA MORRIS

The theme of this work is ‘fear and phobias’, focusing on the common phobia of insects, particularly spiders. The large mixed media installation is of a spider in a web, inspired by both Louis Bourgeois and Alberto Giacometti.

Mixed Media Installation

The aim of the installation was to create an immersive experience that seeks to strike fear into the viewer. A terrifying atmosphere is created as the spider is imposing and seems alive. Almost as if it was trying to crawl out of the wall to capture those who dared to enter its web.
