I visited London in February 2014 with a couple of my peers, as we wanted to explore different galleries allowing us to get inspiration and collect research for our contextual research. I found this experience beneficial visiting galleries near oxford circus along East Castle Street, Pilar Corrasis, Gettyimages Gallery, Kashya Hildebrand, Art First and PI Art works. It allowed me to explore new fresh artists presented in intimate spaces within the side galleries, which in particular Lisa Ross Exhibition in Kashya Hildebrand presenting "Behind the Junes" inspiring.

These photographs have been made within a collaboration of a ten year project, Ross has located these photographs in Taklamakan Desert of China which depicts the quiet and uncomfortable atmosphere. There is no figures within this photographs which creates an unassuming element, the surroundings capture a peaceful atmosphere but reflects almost spirituality.
The materials within this piece, are tided together almost reflect a importance, highlighting a sense of history. The wind has captured the surface of the subject creating a notion of gestural movement creating a spiritual and mediative atmosphere. This piece is titled "Fertility" suggestive to growth and movement creating an element of fluidity.
I have found Lisa Ross's work inspiring, as she captures an unassuming atmosphere creating uncomfortable emotions as its almost spiritual yet naturally beautiful.
