In conjunction to our Exam lessons which take place with Mrs Neale, we have looked at different theories.
I feel looking at my work i can really identify my work clashing with Laura Mulveys Male gaze theory, as my piece is about nigella lawson and trying to pick on the objectification of her, i think i can relate my piece well to her theory as it's about not objectifying woman.
I have gone out of my way to make a point about Nigella's show and the fact she is being objectified byu the camera and we see her through a 'Male Gaze'.
I think my work relates more to Mulveys Theroy as i have both inadvertintly and purposely played up to the idea of her exagerated movements to the camera and her sexiness.
Mairead, you need to re-read your posts as you have contradicted yourself. You begin by saying that your work "clashes" with LM's theory but you then go on to say that it fits in with it. Which is it?
