Golden Syrup Headshot test run

I have completed my first attempt at filming syrup being poured over the head and face. I think it was a successful outcome, although I want to re-film it again at a later date, making changes to the pouring technique (this would work better in a constant position as in this video the pour moves around which is distracting). I also want to deal with a few lighting issues (would a white background work better? Is there any way to reduce the glare on the syrup, whilst keeping the lighting bright?). Also I think it could work better with the hair scraped back off the face....lots of things to think about...but for now, I'm pleased with how this is going, and these stills work well too:

'Come Helga, This Is No Place For Us II' Rebecca Warren

(Maureen Paley Gallery, 10th Oct-20th Nov).
    What I find interesting about Rebecca Warrens work is the sheer bulk of material she uses, and the rawness there seems to be in a lot of her sculptures. I love that you can see finger marks in the materials, which create a narrative, and brings to mind images of the artist quite aggressively ripping into it with her whole body.
    The artists presence is very strong in the work- you can tell she has been in direct and close contact with what you are viewing, and in this respect her work reminds me very much of Janine Antoni's.  
    To me it's very sensual, the idea of squashing clay between your fingers is a something that is pleasurable to experience, and something we can all relate to (if not in adult life, then in childhood). Through looking at these gouged forms, it reminds me of what it feels like to experience this, and I think because of the colours as well, it sort of takes me back to childhood slightly.
