Not making work for the last two weeks has enabled me to sit back and really think and take the time to analyse my work. What have I made? What is its context? What do I continue working with? What […]

It’s very strange to read over and reflect back on my thoughts or ideas about my current work. Last week I received my feedback from my formative assessment about my viva presentation; overall I was satisfied with the comments. I […]

I’ve began working with foam; manipulating their form using elastic bands and bungee ropes that cause distress and tension of the material. These pieces were always experimental and playful, however I now see them as elements of the body. The […]

What is my work? What is the context? What is it about the body that I want to say? What do you want the audience to experience? Am I overthinking the work? By analysing my work, I need to spend […]

During the term I have had discussions with both my tutors and peers about my work and how process is a crucial element in the making of my work. Therefore I felt the need to film some of my work […]

Since last week my mind has been all over the place; last week was so overwhelming due to continuous studio work, foundry workshops and the gap critique that I was involved in. However, I finally feel that my practice has […]

I’ve found this week quite challenging and mentally draining at times; the work is developing, however I feel overwhelmed by ideas and certain elements of my practice. It could be due to the fact that formative assessments are around the corner […]

The most important part of my practice is the making, it has become a fundamental element. I learn through play and the possibilities of the materials; how far can I push them? What forms can I achieve? Will they develop […]

The seminar this week with Judit Bodor was about opportunities in the art world; there are opportunities out there you just have to grab them when you can and if there are’nt any then create them. We had a discussion […]

So far, this week feel’s busy and hectic. I’m currently researching for my PHD and the whole application process, finding information and contacts of supervisors that I can contact to whom have a connection with my areas of interest and […]

I have been completely inactive on this blog since returning to the studio after the Aarhus exhibition.  This is down to a couple of things: first a holiday with the family after the show, then after returning to the studio, […]
