Statment of Intent - Start Concept -

My intention with this project is to explore the theme of Self Transformation. Currently within this theme I have these main dichotomies:
-Masculinity and Femininity (Gender Identity)
-Metaphysical and Material (Belief)
-Sanity and Madness (Psychosis- Links to Beliefs and Real/Unreal and Intro/Extro)
-Introversion and Extroversion (Personality)
-Real and Unreal? (Philosophy – Existence)
-Chaos and Order/ Good and Evil (Mathematics/Physics and Absolutism/Mysticism/Religion)
The fact that these sub-themes appear as dichotomies is an initial problem to solve as so often a binary of something being either 'this or that' is an insufficient way to describe feelings and events within a person. Navigating the spectrum of feeling which lies within and outside these boundaries is how I may do this.  My obvious major problem will be visualising and expressing these themes though I do have blurry ideas for this already. Another aim is to politically charge my work so relating this theme of self-transformation to the world and society in which I live is key. In terms of practical work this will include experiments in print, painting, film/animation, sound recording, poetry/performance and installation. 
For the final outcome/exhibition I aim to create a multi-disciplinary body of work combining some or all the aforementioned disciplines.
