Welcome to my MA in Photography Critical Research Journal.
Having gained a distinction in my MA from Falmouth University (Sept 2018), I now have a website dedicated to my on-going photographic practice at josiepurcellphotography.com
You can still read my MA-related posts here under the Modules tab, or find out more about the photographic series Harena Now (which grew out of my MA studies) and my other projects under the About tab.
I hope you enjoy.
Josie.
