In response to the Easter Brief I received, to use art as a means to explore the unconscious mind- I did a series of automatic writings and drawings- without too much thought, I wrote what came to mind. Below is a couple of the automatic writings/poems.

For this project I have written a piece called 'Among the Lilies', that encapsulates a longing for a fictional ethereal figure.

For this Practical, I was told to create a piece of work in the vein of art therapy that allows me to reflect on my own emotions. It was suggested on the brief that I could do some origami or something that needs concentration to reduce worry, and as I do struggle with this and often get quite anxious I decided this would be a good thing to do for this Practical. I made 4 animals-a bird, a rabbit, a butterfly and a crane and I think this was a really interesting Practical and did help me take my mind off other things.

text and image, i decided to examine which medium has more power/ creates a larger impact. to do this I created a sketch using acrylic paint, which contrasts to the rhetorical question, implying the extent to which words have an impact on us. The aim of this piece is to focus on what affects us more on a daily basis - words or images? This is inspired by the work of Geloy Concepion who focuses on photography and the use of text to convey experiences.

digital painting, made to be seen on digital screens.

I took inspiration from Rene Magritte‘s the Treachery of Images. What I got out of it was having a text describe the image but not necessarily in the most accurate way possible. This led to me creating a commentary on how the female body has been sexualised and questioning, is this all we have to offer?

this piece is an experiment in how I can include text in my work in a way that is fun and childlike.

Taking inspiration from Paul Ekman’s famous psychology experiments looking at the universality of facial expressions and the emotions attached to them, I wanted to create my own version in a way that the image contradicts the text. In my test all the possible answers don't match the facial expression, which reflects upon the idea that we often hide our true feelings from the world, masking them with a fake exterior.

“There’s rosemary, that’s for remembrance. Pray you, love, remember. And there is pansies, that’s for thoughts.

There’s fennel for you, and columbines.—There’s rue for you, and here’s some for me. We may call it “herb of grace” o' Sundays.—Oh, you must wear your rue with a difference.—There’s a daisy. I would give you some violets, but they withered all when my father died. They say he made a good end.”

- Ophelia (Hamlet Act 4 Scene 5)

I wanted to do a kind of “tarot cards” thing with this as each flower has a meaning in general and in Ophelia’s speech, giving kind of a “destiny” that is to be fulfilled by the person. I cut up paper into card size and did simple line art of the plants with parts of the speech at the bottom.

My work is inspired of the social media  apps. I have noticed that since lockdown my screen time has doubled due to these apps. These apps were Instagram, snapchat and twitter. I noticed that these apps represented a part of me that I did not know.

To be naked is to be oneself.

To be nude is to be seen naked by others and yet not recognised oneself. A naked body has to be seen as an object in order to become a nude.

A series of collages inspired by the book "lipstick traces" by Greil Marcus and in response to propaganda in politics. lipstick traces discuss politics surrounding punk subculture, mainly following the sex pistols. The images used in the collages are from the Economist (a top selling source for political and economics news around the world) and quotes gathered from political speakers in history. The last piece to the right has images of feminists through the decades and quotes from voices of change.

Text Stencils created and then photographed in front of objects/images.
Each stencil varies in size.

I was inspired by the work of Ed Ruscha, the way he overlays text onto a landscape got me thinking about how I can respond to this idea.

I created stencils of words that I felt described some of the imagery around me at that moment in time. I then held the stencil up against a background that best describes the word of the stencil. I used different fonts that I thought would add to the effect of the word/imagery.

Photographs manipulated into a small zine.

I wanted to explore my interest in travelling and also remember the experiences I have already had, being in lockdown means that travel is restricted or impossible so this was a nice way to look back and begin to look forward to what I can do in the future.

I used photographs from travelling I did before lockdown and then printed them and scratched into them and wrote over with white pen.

Text and Image - For this week I decided to play on the fact that words often conjure up images in our heads! So I took some of the most graphic smutty  gay pornographic writing I could find on the internet (I.. I have seen some 🤬..) And I read through it. Theres a particular part where one of the guys strips, this is the image that kinda stuck in my head the most since I love the detail and lines on ones body that that action generally shows off. To this end I took the text made the majority of it grey, making the letters that form the image black so the stand out. The text itself is on the small side this was intentional to save other people from accidentally reading it. It was rather painstaking and I think I'm going to spend the next hour staring at a blank wall now.

# data[].attributes.body
For this practical I wanted to see how text can challenge someone's perception of an image. I have taken a photograph of my sister and edited this to be black and white and slightly blurred, to make the image more neutral. I added adjectives over the photo to describe the possible emotions she is feeling, but these are all opposites and contradict each other. When looking at a photograph, we all interpret it differently and may use our own experiences to gain an understanding of it. Some may look at this and think she looks scared and overwhelmed, whereas others may perceive her to be excited or overjoyed.

I was inspired by "sand in the Vaseline" (1974) by Ed Ruscha. I aimed to create images and text that argue with each other, allowing the viewer to decide which element is more powerful- the image or the language.

# data[].attributes.body
For this practical, I was inspired by Joseph Kosuth's work of the chair and clock from the brief. I liked the idea of the text being a definition which is quite subtle but also quite obvious when relating to the image.

# data[].attributes.body
I decided to explore the relation of text and image in response to the work of Rene Magritte, and the use of symbols and what they mean. I wanted to explore the way certain imagery/iconography can relate to certain words and terminology by contrasting ideas of peace and tranquility with harsh language.

# data[].attributes.body
Although initially struggling to come up with an idea for this project, I became very inspired by the work of René Magritte-specifically his The Interpretation of Dreams work. So, I decided to make these flashcards that you would use with a child to teach them words, however I wanted to do this with colours instead. I also wanted to have the written name of the colour be different to the actual colour the image is representing (challenges the image), as I find the idea that you could teach a child that blue is actually red interesting, along with the fact that different people see different colours differently anyway. Also, who decided blue was called blue?

# data[].attributes.body
For text and image I wanted to incorporate text into art. From a newspaper, I found the word 'ARTIST'. With the word being stuck on a canvas, I painted around it in bright colours, presenting the common colours that the artists use to create their amazing pieces of work.

For my Ezine I took inspiration from the Punk zines of the 80s, keeping the colour scheme black and white and collaging photographs together to explore Brutalist architecture in London. I chose for Brutalism to be the subject of my Ezine because I love how stylised it is, standing out from the rest of the London skyline.

I decided to create a zine on food. When looking through other zines, I really liked the use of black and white, and wanted to use the same sort of colours in mine. I also focused mainly on drawings, rather than lots of text, as I liked the contrast of the white sketches on the black background.

For my zine, I decided to make something light-hearted about some of the things myself or my friends have done to keep ourselves busy during lockdown. I made an 8 page zine with a few different activities, such as buying a houseplant (or 20) and getting dolled up to go to Tesco. I didn't want to make something too heavy or serious, so I used lots of colour and kept the subject matter simple and fun.
