Week 6: Monday 28th October 2013


Week 6: Monday 28th October 2013

With a long project it is normal to experience peaks and troughs, last week was definitely a low point within my project.  I have been looking at the idea of creating danger or uncertainty within my work. I have been looking and drawing symbols that represent danger. It has become clear from my samples so far that I am a space maker and an image-maker.  My major project is now moving in the right direction, I have researched new ideas surrounding danger from watching films to practitioner research, which is the input, I needed to expand my work and evoke emotion.  For the next few weeks I need to produce exciting practical work that has the right meaning and connotations, this will be done through, material knowledge and samples.

I have been inspired by Antoni Tapies and his political paintings, although my concept is very different to his, he provokes emotion through image, colour and layering of paint.
