For my drawing project I aim to create a series of drawings depicting different ways people can struggle with their identity

Feeling watched/judged

Piecing yourself together

Coming out of your shell

For my drawing project Ive been inspired by some drawings from collage last year. Where I was thinking about eyes being the window to the soul, in relation to someone’s identity. These drawings didn’t really end up going far, so i want to see where I can take them. Maybe creating a series of drawing to different people using the same concept.

The human eye contains an extremely large number of individual characteristics. No two people have the exact same, each being unique to there identity. Whereas other features of the face can be very similar.

The repetition of the eye is to represent a struggle with identity and the uncomforted feeling and pressure of finding your identity while being watched and judged by people around you.

This drawing is inspired by the idea of someone ‘coming out of their shell’ and how uncomfortable that can be.
I want to further this by trying a drawing with them coming out from the back, because the fingers lined up look a lot like a spine. Which I think could be a fun way to play with the image.

To start this week I’ve done a few life drawings, that I’m planning to work into, to link to my theme of struggling with identity.
I am wanting to have one of these drawings express the impact that sexual assault has had on my view of my own identity.

For drawing I have taken inspiration from my second drawing where I have used the hole punch for the string, to try to create a piece by stabbing holes into the drawing to build up detail using the light. It didn’t turn out as well as I hoped, due to me not having enough time to finish it to the standard I wanted.

This painting reflects my personal growth and the people that have helped me grow throughout my life. The eyes representing the family I’m not as close with that have watched me grow up and become who I am today, from behind the scenes. I wanted to include a couple more people but due to time I couldn’t have finished it in time for hand in. However I’m still really happy with how it’s turned out.

For this block I am looking at the memory of the fear I felt as a child of a room in my Nans home. This room held her collection of clowns, one for every year of her life and more, every possible space filled.
