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, […]
Asides from thinking it must have been a joy to stretch those curvaceous cloud canvases there’s a serious ethereal edge to the sponged pigment floating on the surface to Rondinone’s Cloud paintings. Titled after the dates produced the Cloud paintings lift the Mountain sculptures […]
We’re coming to the end of week 5; already I can identify that my work has taken a new direction. I’ve realized that purely materials is what evokes and challenges me to produce work. My studio space has transformed into […]
The work is beginning to progress and develop with my experiments with the jelly and most recently bread dough. The touch and nature of these materials suggest human flesh, this could be an area to explore further? Scale and space […]
This blog is for my final year studying at University Campus Suffolk. I will be looking at temporary art using ice sculptures looking at atmosphere and the use of documentation against art itself.
I finally feel comfortable with moving forward and producing the work. After my tutorial with artist Holly Davey I had the reassurance and an extra push that was needed to produce the works. In discussion, the jelly forms were an […]
London-based Haroon Mirza is the first British artist to receive the biennial award which honours those influenced by the late American sculptor Alexander Calder.
These works explore form and shape in an open space; I come across a shape or an idea in my mind and find the material that can achieve it’s quality and vision. I’m curious in how materials can be […]
These are playful experiments with form using organic/ food substance materials; the pieces take on a life of their own and are placed in an awkward manner with the purpose intent of whether they will fall or remain in […]
My research direction and ideas have taken a new direction over the last week. After having a refresher induction in the metal workshop I had a sudden urge to work and play with this material. I have always been surrounded […]
Having an open plan studio space and surrounded by a range of materials to play with and manipulate informs my practice and is my first point of contact. The exploration of minimalism and form has drawn me to new and […]
It was very helpful to have had the advice and guidance of Holly and Stefhan in our presentation morning. Following on from my previous work and concepts, they informed and challenged my under of my own work. What am I […]
Jelly is a wonderful material to work with and the process of this organic element is engaged with the work. The use of the soft and almost translucent tights allow the jelly to reveal its colour, texture and the seeping […]
This was a fun and experimental series of photographs using a range of found objects that lay around in our daily surroundings but are taken for granted. Eva Hesse’s practice has become a focal point of my research and her […]
Working within a personal studio space, I am surrounded by a mass of materials, therefore my focus at the moment is to produce and challenge the functionality of these organic and everyday objects. The work can take on a minimalist […]
