Project 1
My overriding motivation and theme is to
look and contemplate perception, sense
of reality, people and life. My work
will be a response to my observed reality, my view from my sphere, my
observations and interpretations by looking at society and everyday life in my
world. The reality that I accept as set
is in fact just filtered through my mind and its interpretations and experience
and is also subject to my associations.
I want to also try to look at the alternatives and comparisons, I will
try to look at people and life in different lights and perspectives, which
along with other various elements may include humour. No one true sense of reality exists and I
want to stop, question and explore other ways of seeing my observed world,
taking different slants and angles on a familiar environment.
I intend to paint, sculpt and probably use
print in response to my theme. For
painting and print I will take photos to use for reference and sketches along
with imagination to create compositions and narratives. Most likely I will be using acrylic paint, and I will also use the opportunity to further my understanding of
colour and light.
In
print, being a new subject to me, I will no doubt be using etching whilst
incorporating other techniques as well but this is open to
experimentation. All of my work will
incorporate the human figure, the human condition and how we fit, based on my
understanding of my world.
In sculpture I will still be thinking about
the above but more specifically exploring ways of indicating the figure, not necessarily in a solid way, this will
include thinking about the transient aspect and how we fit into space.
