February sun



Experiments and installations today. Stuck clingfilm to masking tape with acetone. Have an idea to use different types of clingfilm due to the colour ranges you can get.

Inspired



First image- Susie MacMurray. Second image - Kirsten Hassenfeld. Two artists I am currently looking at. I find them interesting to compare- they have such a fragile element to their work yet it is strong and captures one's imagination.

In the studio



The photos here show my current work I am doing in the studio. I feel in track and that I am developing on a larger scale.

Buzzzzzing



Had our exhibition, "Touching", which opened today. My piece was a blind painting, where the participator approaches the work and interacts by moving the paint under the layers. It worked aesthetically, but a lot of people didn't use the blind fold. This is because I think they wanted to see what the work looked like and predict it. If I used a different material that was quite fluid, I think they would be more willing to close their eyes.

the Event

Had a great week! Sculpture show opened on Wednesday and the Event was on Thursday. It was such a fantastic night to see everyone's work in that environment and interact. We all wore masks that we had made and did live painting, performance, video and sound.



This is the piece I put in the sculpture show. I wasn't pleased with how I placed it in the surrondings and after having a tutorial, I think I could have changed it a lot. For instance; bringing it away from the wall, think about the composition- less crowded.
