After completing my "Collections" Project, I was tasked with with the opportunity to take one of my Steve's outside of the studio and out into the open world for a week. This challenge was inspired by Ingrid Murphy's Ceramic Dog Project where one of the dogs travels around while the exhibit is active. During this … Continue reading Baby Steve’s Adventure: A Week In The Wild
Now this is what I call specialism. I'm back in the realm of 3D and for good this time. Going from a 2D driven mindset to a 3D driven creative process is quite the change but it definitely is something for the better. Although I love illustration and developing my own narrative in my work, … Continue reading Packaging Project
Written Investigation When this project started, we were sent off into the world with a map and was told to just write about what we saw. This is what was described as Written Investigation and when that concept was introduced, I found myself soon enjoying what was to come due to my love of spies … Continue reading Process – Visual Communication
Looking back on this project, I can safely say this was the most crucial and eye-opening project I had done at the time. I learnt a lot about myself and how I view the world just by doing research into my subject matter and figuring out things I didn't even know about. This project will … Continue reading Process – Fine Art
Upon settling back into the realm of 3D, we were set the task of incorporating our previous 3D work but in a 2D way. This projects allowed us to see the practical process and idea generation most people in the 3D world have when creating products, objects and other 3D style entities. This led into … Continue reading Process – 3D
When going into the second round of the carousel, things were getting intense. Not only was the whole "One Week Project" thing still active but there was also the added element of contextual understanding. This meant extensive writing exercises that wanted 500 words per process segment of the carousel. Now at the beginning I thought … Continue reading Process – Textiles
As apart of the foundation course, I was privileged enough to go to the city of London and explore its popular museums and places that I never get to experience whenever I get the chance to go to London. These experiences are things I definitely will remember for years to come due to the fact … Continue reading London Trip
Going into Fine Art I wasn't really sure what to expect. Fine Art to me has been described as a subject made for painters and philosophers throughout my short time as an art student. Granted it's true that the majority of people taking fine art are painters and/or people who love finding deeper inner meanings … Continue reading Intro to Fine Art
When going into the second week, I was feeling more confident and expressive with myself and also the way I brought out and created my work. However, the physical element of the carousel was put into effect and subjects of change are never my strong suit but I grew to cope with it as weeks … Continue reading Intro to 3D
So after settling into University life, school structure began in full swing and the carousel went into full effect. This carousel was split into four parts (Textiles, 3D, Fine Art and Visual Communications) and would be how the course would be carried out for the next couple of months until specialisms would be decided. This … Continue reading Intro to Textiles
