 A small talk with Julian (the day before original decline)

Today I had a small talk with Julian on my plans for the rest of the project and he gave some recomendations/ideas of things i can explore. My orginal plan was to make the model sink and items for that as well as 3 small scale mix media painting experiments (a 4th or some larger ones if i had time to do them). He liked these ideas but want me to still do somthing with the sink in the studio like i orgianlly planned too, he gave some ideas that i would like to explore as well.

He recomendated 'dressing the sink', this involved using the sink to display my work as well as some other instulations i could do. The first idea was putting my paintings or other work at the sink and taking a good quality photo of it, using the sink as a part of my dispaying of work. With that idea he also said about then putting up the photo, taking a photo of that and so on, creating an endless image, i would also like to do this maybe adding something new each time like its growing. 

He also suggested painting on or around the sink, or sticking things on the sink like one of my vegeable paintings/a copy of it. I like the idea of this, i would like to do a stop motion time laspe of bamboo growing on the wall behind the sink, painting each section of the bamboo at a time and adding the leaves. I also want to make a garland to go on the sink and around a bar (either the one supporting the sink or the one supporting the ceiling), with this i want to use my vegable paintings or some plush vegables as well as adding some beads. A class mate might be giving me some thin bamboo and i would like to use that in the garland.

An idea i had as an aftermath of this is doing something with tomato's on a specific wall in the studio (this also came from him talking about making giant work, such as a giant tomatoes). I wish to do this as tomato is one of the plants i been using in my work and as well as a 'memorial' to a plant we use to have in the studio. On this i could do another time lapse, stick a photo do the plant and a paint around it, stick singular images of tomatoes on the wall (maybe also around the photo). I could also use the photo of the plant with the sink, linking the work i been doing to a lost 'member' of the studio.

Putting up show day 1 3rd June 2024 Today was my first official day of putting up the show, I wanted to focus on cleaning out my area, adding the mesh and fabric to the frame and putting the frame up. What I was able to complete  I realise that I put the mesh on the wrong way, but j was able to fix the issue buy flipping the frame before I put tje fabric on. My original plan of having the hook things for the books will not work, due the the fabric being in the way. I chose to do tie fabric tight and didn't realise that I wouldn't be able to put the wire between the fabric and the frame. I plan to put the hook things on the under part of the frame or on the inside edge I don't like the sag that is happening to the mesh, I plan to sew it to the fabric once the beads have been hung, so that it will have a more clean and finish look to it Before I headed home, I did some lose draping of the fabric so that I have a bett...

 Project proposal  My plan for this project, is to explore a made-up counterculture around the idea of taking back control/identity from those who are in authority. This counterculture can be seen in both a negative and positive late, as the people reclaiming their power have been labelled as criminals. On one hand, this could be viewed as in a negative way as the people/criminals deserve the punishment they received, making it seen as unjustified for them to take back their freedom. But it can also be seen as everyday people reclaiming what was unjustly taken from them—those who were wrongfully accused, committed crimes out of necessity to survive, or became victims of their circumstances, not intending harm or feeling remorse for what they did, or simply making a mistake. I will be taking inspiration from Japanese criminal tattoos from the Edo period, which were used to mark someone as a criminal. I'll also be looking at traditional Japanese tattooing, as this form of tattoo...

Looking at two early works of Modernism (600-700 word) - 856 words total In this essay, I will examine two early Modernist movements, Fauvism and Cubism. Although both of these movements involve abstraction, they each emphasize different elements within their paintings. Fauvism focuses on colour while Cubism has a focus on form. Modernism is a global movement within the art community that emerged around the 20th century. Modernism is defined by artists who broke away from patron demands, forming the Avant-Garde. Modernism artists creates art based on their own vision, challenging social expectations and exploring new ideas and techniques that was once unachievable. The Industrial Revolution played crucial a role in this shift, as cheaper materials, like synthetic dyes, made it easier for artists to produce their work independently of patron support. Though this, artists began to push the boundaries on what is 'good' and 'bad' art, as well as rejecting old traditions. Fa...
