 15/12/24 - First trip
This was the first day we went to the castle, i spent this day taking photos of things and talking to my classmates about possible ideas. We went around together, jumping ideas against each other.

15/1/25 - 2nd group trip + Observation sketch

During this trip, the focus was to do some observational drawings. I really liked doing this, i did not like the pots ones as much as the other page but i enjoyed it overall. I did not know this was the plan when going to the castle, so i was not fully prepared and only had some random materials. Despite this, i enjoyed having to be more creative with my art due to the limited colours as well as the colours being brighter then what i would normally work with. I would like to go back and do some more of these (edit later, did not have a chance to do this again cause was ill and needed to focus on other things, but would like to do similar things for the beginning stages of my FMP)

21/1/25 - Trip with classmate for photos + talk with a staff member
The focus for this trip was to retake my photos of things in the castle as well as to see the Impressionist show. Along with this i also wanted to focus on looking for more natural elements to add to my list as i did not find as much online. This was successful, i don't think i retock all the photos i originally taken but tock enough and the important ones for the notes i taken.
While doing this, one of the staff members was walking around with us, telling us about different art works. I enjoyed this a lot, getting information that i didn't know before, being able to pay attention things i normally looked over. Some of these was a tiny mosaic in the natural world section of the long hall, as well as a piece of lace that is used for medical reasons.

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...
