Murdo

A toasted bagel loaded with butter, ham, chicken, bacon, cheese and tomato with gherkin at the side. It’s one of those sandwiches I make when I come home drunk - just fill it with everything that’s available in the fridge. It tastes great at the time but it’s just too much, too complicated. Bagel is however the king of bread.

Jack

A couple of slices of toast with butter. It’s something that is always available when I’m hungry, most of the time it’s last resort but sometimes I would kill for a slice of toast. It’s a good friend, not too complicated and always there for me when I need it.

Chris

A roll with egg mayonnaise. A very common sandwich filling, there are just too many of them out there. I have had it a couple of times but egg mayo is really not that great is it? It seems to be the last sandwich left on the shelf in supermarkets, nobody really wants them.

Darren

White bread sandwich with butter and jam with crusts cut off. It’s a sandwich for kids. A very simple childish bite that doesn’t require a lot of effort and is quick and easy to eat. The fruitiness is very attractive to me but I can’t stand how clingy white bread is - it sticks to your mouth and it just isn’t enough to satisfy me. Still hungry after eating a jam sandwich.

Jed

A BLT Ciabatta. For me, it’s something that looks really good and I’m so attracted to it but I regret eating it. I often forget that I don’t enjoy it and keep going back to it. I have had it 4 times in the past 5 years. This sandwich actually belongs to somebody else. 

Callum

Brown bread sandwich with tuna mayo and cucumber. I used to be in love with this sandwich for years. Now I have just had enough of tuna, the thought of it makes me cringe. This sandwich hates me too because I chose more interesting fillings over it so I will never get to have it again and it’s probably for the best.

Dean


A croissant with pesto and cheese. A combination I never thought I would enjoy, but now I can’t get enough of it. It doesn’t seem like a good idea because I’m lactose intolerant but it’s so worth it. Very satisfying especially in a croissant, it’s both sweet and savoury - exactly what I need. Favourite sandwich by far.

Now that I am looking at this work again after a while, I guess it would be considered a 'winter depression' when things are bad in winter, they are really bad and this work proves that for me. I handed this in late, my description for it was - "the reason I didn't go to art school for weeks" Which basically was drug abuse and feeling sorry for myself for it.  Now I'll go into a bit more detail about it. I basically skived the whole duration of this project titled "body" and instead I sat in my room for weeks doing drugs and drinking. I was also going through a wave of feeling like I need to see someone about my health issues earlier that semester, I'd waited for them to send me a form for a while and during the time I was on a drug binge the form finally arrived. It triggered me into feeling really awful even though I was a lot better. I filled the form in and was going to send i...

Jam and cheese. These are some experiments of how I would display the sandwiches on my bed sheets. I ditched the plate as it was just in the way - it took attention away from the subject and deleted the intention of the idea. I quite like the idea of the sandwiches being laid out on bed sheets and making a mess. When having sex you don't tend to put down cling film on your bed to protect it - and sex can be messy.  I am much more keen on the portrait images, it indicates that it is people that are described. I love how filthy the 3rd image looks, with the spreadable cheddar falling out at the side, although the composition in the last 3 images are the winning ones for me.
