An artist who I came across while researching my "Do You Want the Truth or Something Beautiful?!" project was Mathew Collishaw. His work deals with such sinistre aspects of life which I really liked about him, he touches on things like child abuse and pornography, beastiality, drug abuse, religion, to beings like butterflies and flowers, with a constant referring to Victorian times, art, artists, scholars, etc. Collishaw works with many different techniques and mediums, mainly video projection and photogrpahy. My favourite series of his would have to be his "Sugar and Spice and All things Nice, That's What Little Girls are Made of".
