A study of mental illness.
With the 1st Semester of year 2 finished, i’ve managed to get my four paintings hung for assessment. Using film stills, i have attempted to look in to mental health and some of the issues many of us face on […]
Was attempting to blur an image I’d painted. My problem here was, I do not allow thinks to sit. I went back at it way to early, muddied the paints and made a pig’s ear of it. But that’s all […]
Further responses to a mini project I set myself looking at Mental illness. In this I wanted to respond to the word Depression. There is a thin line between manic and happy. This is originally a still from the Film, […]
This came about after some research into the word fear in popular culture. What makes it, how do we truly respond to it.. Do we run, can we run? What if we can’t? What if fear simply grips us until […]
Using a still from a film, i’ve added to the original painting but finished it in the same few colours that i began with.
In response to an exercise i decided to look at the works of John Brennan, specifically his untitled piece from 2012. I was drawn to the use of a very minimal pallet and his use of found images taken out […]
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cd2aov8HpRY this is a short video i did in my 1st year. Stop motion. The music is by Josh Wink. i’m quite proud of this one!
Running with the theme of investigations, i decided to look at the apple, in charcoal at first then moved into pastels. Placing it in various places in the Home. Eventually i began to think of the meaning of the apple […]
Back to a family lockdown. essentials are bought and the camera is out to document
At Home yesterday. The brief was to look at other ways of creating a drawing. Experiment with household items etc. With this i decided to blot toilet tissue with Acrylic paint (very carefully) and work into the image, blending a […]
Getting back to business in the studio after the Covid lockdown was a triumph! although the primer did need a really good stir!
This is a personal journey through my years at The University of Bolton studying Fine Art…The if’s, what’s, and the Attempts… The Homework and the Studio processes, my tiny biosphere of stuff n’ that.
My final year of study at The Bristol School of Art!
Has Covid altered the way I work? My journey through my final (!) year studying BA (Hons) Fine Art at the University of Suffolk.
https://www.refused.space/ This online showcase offers a glimpse of a diverse range of work of exceptional quality from University of Suffolk’s BA (Hons) Fine Art 2020 graduating students. Outcomes that are the result of the students’ hard work and willingness to challenge […]
I was looking through a collection of ephemera passed through my family from my father’s side. I came across this postcard depicting the Motor Transport Service Corps, outside Earl’s Terrace, London in 1917. My great great grandfather, Staff Sergeant George […]
I have come across the autobiographical work of Louise Bourgeois but I am particularly interested in her hardbound book Album 1994. The book includes 68 black and white photographs, illustrating Louise Bourgeois’ life, with 48 reflective comments printed onto translucent […]
I have been researching family history from my paternal grandmother’s side. I have always been interested in objects with a history behind them, whether something displayed and preserved in a museum cabinet, or ephemeral postcards with handwritten memoirs on them. […]
I am interested in the way in which Gerhard Richter created a vast number of ‘overpainted’ photographs. These are categorised into groups such as ‘self portraits’ and ‘family’. Each colour photograph has been overpainted with oil paint, and simply titled […]
We visited Butley Mills Studios, Asylum Studios and Old Jet Studios This allowed us to have an insight into the diverse works and processes used by Suffolk artists working closely together in shared studios. One of the highlights from the Butley […]
After researching Michael Landy’s Breakdown, primarily for my dissertation, I have become interested in unpicking everyday objects. I found the processes Landy used to order, catalogue, destroy and document all of his possessions intriguing. I especially was interested in how he kept […]
I have been thinking about the idea of palimpsests, with visible traces of earlier writing and layers scratched into the surface of a wax tablet. I find it interesting to think about the traces of history left visible on the […]
