This was an interesting one because I accidentally did it on the wrong side of the paper and then I re did it on the right side so it created like a double effect

We created a 30 second video and added it to a random 30 sec video. Mine was of a train sound taking off paired with a video of something falling from the sky.

This is my final project for the year!!!
A refelection:
- If I could do it again I would make it a moving image
- I would also project it on the roof with a place to watch the fake sky.

it created this reflection on the wall which was interesting and not planned.

I like the overlapping of colours and liner lines

Durational Chemigram (2022) by Amanda Williams

# data[].attributes.body
I love the patterns and unique work that is made in this artwork. It reminds of me of so many different places like a map of a planet or a picture of a coral reef when it really is capturing a place in time.

# data[].attributes.body
I love the shadows that are created by the areas of work that are covered.

We scanned in our photos and these are one of them. It was a really fun process and I hope to continue it next year in sca.

# data[].attributes.body
We developed our photos and left them to dry to scan in next week

# data[].attributes.body
We got the cameras and now need to take photos

# data[].attributes.body
We continued to work in the darkroom making photograms. I used many items that I found around the house. Including objects like fabric, tule, straws, cotton balls, lace.

# data[].attributes.body
Introduction to the darkroom
- We got inducted into the space and brainstormed items to bring in to use in photograms.

# data[].attributes.body
- We used a Zoom to record sounds around the university it was very interesting how faraway it could pick up sound.
- It almost felt like an invasion of privacy hearing peoples conversations.

# data[].attributes.body
- Today we combined all our sounds together to create a musical piece that was based on an image of our selection

# data[].attributes.body
We listened to our finished sounds. HALF of mine was deleted which was not fun :( but it still sounded good.

Week 1 - Thursday

What is 2D?
- I would define 2D as being restricted to a flat surface and being viewed from one perspective. It's about creating an illusion through the use of photography, printmaking, drawing and painting

What is an image?
- A replication of the real world also known as an interpretation or imitation of the world
- It allows us to accept deception
- Examples are pictures, maps, fonts, symbols, and dreams

The concept of an image is recognised as human as we are taught to read the images

Text In Images

- Creates new meaning
- Challenges our perspective and ideas
- Text can dominate the work as we look to the text for meaning

# data[].attributes.body
- We had to come up with a design to make a print.
- It took me a while to think of what I wanted to do, I was going to make a small print of a little boat called little toot but i decided to make two fish in the shape of the ying yang.
- My final design ended up being a Polaroid with a picture of a wave on it.
- To make the stencil I had to place the different layers on trace paper.

Week 2 - Wednesday
Scores and Sequences

What is a Score?
Scores are a way of transcribing a performed event into a system that allows individuals to repeat the process.

Week 2 - Thursday
The Aesthetics of Cartography

During medieval times printing maps became widely available.
Mapping is an abstract of the world we live in.

Types of Maps
- Topography
- Eurocentric Map as figure
- Map of the stars / drawing constellations
- Song Lines (map of aboriginal land, only those who ‘own’ the story can draw it)
- Wind maps
- Inuit Tacktuit
- Desire lines (paths and tracks made by people)
- Architecture
- Anatomy
- Mind Maps
- Charting planets

Week 3 - Wednesday
The digital and the hand-made

Week 3 - Thursday
Self-Portraiture: Tragedy versus comedy

Why do we paint portraits?
- Reflects peoples self through different techniques

What do portraits tell us about ourselves?
- Able to exaggerate someone's self-image
- Able to show phycological state/ reflect emotions

# data[].attributes.body
Week 4 - Wednesday
Presented Part A of the assessment

Week 4 - Thursday
- Spoke with Bec about my idea for Part B.
- I want to continue the theme of mapping and the concept of family through a large charcoal drawing of my grandmother's family when she was little and when she was older.
- I want to use fabric as its soft and raw and can easily drape.

# data[].attributes.body
- First, we made a random structure out of recycled materials
- Then we painted them one colour as our aim is to paint them in a monochromatic colour scheme
- I choose blue as I had painted in black and white before and wanted to expand on my use of colours
- I was also able to paint the background of my paper in a light blue wash

# data[].attributes.body
- I was drawn to the piece of cardboard because of its face-like appearance.
- I also like the way it looked like a little ghost.
- Now reflecting on the idea of it looking like a ghost a cool concept would have been to paint it in more of a Halloween colour like orange and paint it like a pumpkin as the face could be like that of a Jack lantern.
- I like the texture of the hexagon pattern and have had experience with painting lace-like objects so I decided to add it in for some interesting textures.

# data[].attributes.body
- I added a light blue wash as the background.
- I sketched the general shape of the artwork and started to paint the shape in blue.

# data[].attributes.body
- This is the finished artwork. I tried to add more details to the work and found it challenging to make the honeycomb pattern.
- I am happy with the finished outcome of the work and I like the pop of orange.

# data[].attributes.body
Week 3 - Wednesday

- We started painting our self-portraits today
- I decided to keep the theme of the photo and do blue and red
- I tried to do techniques like starting with the darkest colour first and then add lighter tones
- I don't consider painting as a medium I am good at but I was out of my comfort zone painting faces and painting in front of other people which can be nerve racking

# data[].attributes.body
Week 3 - Wednesday

- I used photoshop to cut out my head and blend it together
- I want to keep it the same colour as I didn't want to work in monochromatic

# data[].attributes.body
Week 2 - Thursday
Printmaking

Today we made prints inspired by maps. We did one off prints by making stencils out of paper. I choose to do a red print because I liked the colour compared to the others which were printing just a tad too dark for what I wanted.

We then also did a trace print in black and I was inspired by topographic maps to make a pattern that replicates the different heights of the land. I really liked how it turned out.

Week 1 - Thursday

- During this exercise we were instructed to draw with our own interpretation of each step.
- I found myself considering the previous step rules in the future steps for example, draw a geometric shape, then the next step was draw another shape. I would then tend to draw another geometric shape instead of any type of shape.
- The end resulted in an geometric/abstract artwork
- Everyones looked different not any two the same and each one coloured in a different combination of colours.

# data[].attributes.body
- I like the freedom and the kind of unexpected lines that create a messy but well finished work

# data[].attributes.body
- I like her use of monochromatic portraits

# data[].attributes.body
- I like her use of collages

# data[].attributes.body
- I like this artwork as it blurs the line between abstract and fact as it is of a map of America and its so well known that if you look close enough then you can see the different forms.
- I also like the simple colour pallet as the colours blend together and brings that cubism and orphism movements.

# data[].attributes.body
- I love geometric shapes and collages so this work stands out for me.
- The idea that each piece can be rearranged to make a new work or new shape makes it have endless meaning and interpretations.
- The colours and shape of this particular piece reminds me of Perry the platypus from Phineas and Ferb. heheh :)

# data[].attributes.body
- At a first glance you would believe this was a map of a real place with when you get close and the title as 'self portrait' its actually a map of Perrys mind, thoughts and ideas. He is able to bring his imagination to life.

# data[].attributes.body
- I like the layering of the different drawings and the idea of repetition.
- I also like how many people come together to make the work as a map or a place is usually shared. The journey or path someone takes isn't alone as many people have walked the path before them. Over time we also start to know a place so well that we can go there by memory and this brings people's memories or ideas to life.

'The key of Dreams' - Magritte, 1998-1967

# data[].attributes.body
- We see what we want to see which is images and words.
- It's our choice to react and respond to this. How do we interoperate this and do the words make the image change in meaning?

I visited the sca gallery in between classes today. It was quiet so I could take the time to look at each one. Hehe sometimes when you have people around it’s hard to just focus on the art because you feel rushed!!! Anyways I liked this collection of works with this particular one standing out for me. I saw the red shin pad and it reminded me of when I played soccer and the whole work kind of became a way of reminiscing in old memories of having fun with my family like using the bogy board at the beach.

# data[].attributes.body
I love the scale of this large print. The light is positioned in such a way that it kind of brings it into the present as if the spot light is going through the wall into the image.

# data[].attributes.body
- As part of our studio work on Wednesday we visited the Tin Shed Gallery on campus.
- The exhibition at the time is about the 1970-80s forgotten history of Sydney. The works are heavily inspired by and depict protesting during the time.
- I really enjoyed the screen print wall as I have a passion for printmaking and I loved the range of colour's and styles of all the different posters and went arranged together really complements each one's uniqueness and stand-out features.

This Artwork stood out to me because of the sparkly materials used to colour the work. It reminds me of when i was a kid and gel pens were a very popular pen to use to make something look 'extra' nice. It's almost like it's used ironically to enhance the enthusiasm and sarcastic tone of the work.
