I found my virtual exploration of the British museum unique and fascinating. This is because of the very distant and objective nature of the visit due to the experience being through a small screen and obviously not sharing the space with the art and artefacts or being able to appreciate their details a well. But especially how this contradicted with the personal aspects of it, like how there was nobody else there and I could be so close with the pieces yet almost see them from a distance at the same time. I think that these elements definitely effected my response outcome and it’s very informed theme because I spent detailed time observing the museum so that this was reflected in my sculpture.

Today I went on a virtual visit of the British Museum as we are currently in lockdown. The British Museum, in the Bloomsbury area of London, is dedicated to human history, art and culture. Its permanent collection of around eight million works is among the largest and most comprehensive in existence, having been widely sourced during the era of the British Empire.

The tour started in the Egyptian exhibit and moved throughout various eras and continents that are on display. I’m not the biggest fan of Egyptian history but the way that it was laid out in the British Museum was fascinating. The statue of Ramesses II was very impressive as it’s  one of the largest pieces of Egyptian sculpture in the British Museum, Ramesses II who succeeded his father Sethos I in around 1279 BC and ruled Egypt for 67 years. The sculptor has used a slight variation of normal conventions to relate his work to the viewer, angling the eyes down slightly, so that the statue relates more to those looking at it.

I also really enjoyed the wall of brass plaques from Benin City in Nigeria (16th century) . Each plaque told a story and they had so much detail on them! The plaques consisted of: warriors, townspeople, royalty/gods, weapons and animals.

In the future, I would like to visit the Asian section so I can learn even more history and different cultures.

- please try to avoid pictures of your faces - of course drawings are fine!
- you can also connect things by clicking the 3 dots ... on the top right of each upload. This might be nice if you want to draw links between ideas or connect your own artworks.
Have fun! Speak soon!

To me the work inside this cabinet looked natural - no harsh lines, natural materials - it seemed to be like something 'from the earth.' using the irony of 'nature' being contained within a man-made box i made a man-made box being taken over by nature.
