Space Invaders


When moving to university we were all greeted by a blank canvas. A new room, a new space to inhabit. How we chose to paint our canvas was up to us; and how we handled our brush stokes and chose our colours can say a lot about the personality of the painter.
The art of making a room unique is not just a job for a swanked up interior designer, everyone knowingly or not personalise's and projects a vision of themselves. The accumulation of items in your nest, from posters, pictures and pint glasses to a minimalistic ground gives a space an identity.
An uncomfortable awkwardness awoke when invading another's space; the evidence of itches, the itch to clean the itch to organise, the itch to impress; is a portrayal to the everyday when we are fixated on rebranding ourselves to suit the ideals of others, or producing a juiced up version who we are.
Only in your space, on your own, are you your true self. 3 day old cereal bowls, hair coated bobbles, used cotton buds and the odd rotting towel; all that grossness, is your grossness and nobody else will judge you there. Though to feel free and excepted, to hold your true identity should go beyond the 4 damped walls of your London rented accommodation. 
To be granted access to these sacred spaces is a privilege. No comment is needed on the details of these territories, the materials collate together to form a picture of personality, enjoy having a nose.
