Models wanted for art project on mixed-race identity

Hi,

I'm putting together an installation comparing attitudes towards people of mixed-race & mixed-ethnicity & mixed breed dogs - tapping into issues such as mongrel races, racial purity, etc.

I'm looking for at least six people in or near London to have their photos taken. I will be taking some head shots & a couple of full length shots. I would also want a few details about your background - parents names, place of birth, etc.

I don't want to go into too much detail about the finished piece on an open forum, so would anyone interested please send me a private message.

At this stage I'm only planning to exhibit the installation within St Martins School of Art, where I study part-time. (Regular members may know I also work for the Guardian.)

Please note, I can only offer £10 for your time & a photo of the finished product.

Thanks,

David

The AF&D forum doesn’t get a huuuge amount of traffic, David. So, for your purposes, it might be worth adding a heads-up to the Barbelith Pager thread in the Conversation, particularly if time is a factor.

Sounds interesting though. I hope you'll report back.

Perhaps we should move this to Convo for traffic purposes? Would you be happy with that?
