Bound and Gagged

These black and white photographs are based upon the torture, rape and murder of Fred and Rose Wests' victims that they bound and gagged for their own satisfaction to carry out sexual abuse. Within them I have taped my entire head using duct tape and straws to help me breathe. The experience was strange and unfamiliar as I had no control of what was happening or of what could go wrong due to the risks. My aim is to further experiment with this concept due to the discomfort and abuse that the victims suffered at the hands of Fred and Rose West.
