Jan 12, Assessment Feedback day.
Confirmed a meet with ArtUK for the tagger project.
Sourced some items for fundraising and added them to the trolly and safe.
Mats now put a large floorpan up and people are starting to move post-its around and discuss spaces. It's been nice to see how encouraging people are of each other, to consider the best spaces for big ides. Casey encouraged me to go for a room where lighting could be controlled, because I wanted to paint a space (similar to my exhibition proposal) and several of us are excited to accommodate as much space as we can so that Mat can do something BIG.
Popped a message and gif in the chat to signpost everyone on the course to the exhibition planning space in the studio and the Teams area.
Withdrew interest from the Kisgrove Canal project with Anna Francis but took a good look at the commitment and date; I'm considering tackling it as a Saturday project and still making a proposal.
Put a preliminary exhibition title statement together, including that the degree show is dedicated in memory of Shane Dineen as suggested yesterday.
Had my feedback which was really useful; I have a good idea of how to respond.
- I need to focus on gestural marks to capture the urgency that is achieved in smaller sketches. Bigger brushes - don't lose the sketch. Sometimes the lost detail can become something.
- Think about different ways of offering up imagery- destabilise the audience -what am I looking at here?
- I want to be able to add technical details in places but I need to determine how or if it's actually really important.
- I'll focus on working in series but aim to produce a much larger body of work, so will use canvas material and tape it off rather than making up stretched canvases.
- I need to really establish connections between artists and their theoretical positions in relation to my own work
- Deep dive into information that I ca find through galleries; articles.
- Don't forget about the masked sections - the exposed yet missing sections
