The Final Week


I haven't been updating here for a while as I have been busy getting stuck into this final project, and its nearly coming to the end now.

Here are some of my most recent photos which I have been working on.
This isn't my final piece yet but working on it :)

Repetition



I like the idea of covering something in a material that isn't usually used. This as an example of magazines spread across a wall as if it was wallpaper.

MAISON MOSCHINO





This hotel shows bits of detail against white walls which makes the room its own unique "boutique" style. This is something which I want to consider within this project.

Final Term

Update: Were now back in uni and work is becoming a lot more intense!
I am going into sampling now, trying to discover new ways of using materials.
I am a little confused about what area to go into for making my final piece but I am sure that all this research should get my ideas flowing to a final idea :)

To Do:
--Making screens from sketches
--Samples of new materials
--Keep making notes of ideas
--Try and go to see an exhibition this week!

Back to the backstreets...




Have only just realised I visited the backstreets again! From day too night :P x

Nature in Manchester


Combining nature and Interiors. I think that looking threw some of my photos which I have gathered from the journey around Manchester backstreets, there are some elements of nature that I could use in the FMP.

Hidden Detail





What can I find in the backstreets of manchester? What is always been there and never noticed before?

I spent a whole day walking around the backstreets to descover new things for insperation for this project. I took tuns of photographs including zoomed in images of detail, objects and landscape.

Manchester - "give me inspiration"



Wonderland Room





An idea which I am working on at the moment it making a room from looking at an image or an object and was brousing the internet and found some rooms which reminded me of the film Alice in Wonderland. I like the statement colours and bold prints.

Alice in Wonderland 3D



This weekend I went to go and see the new 3D Version of Alice in Wonderland with some famous faces and what a dsapointment it was. The build up from last year was not worth it. The graphics were still impressive but didn't exactly need the 3D effect the majority of the film.

Final Project!

Final Project - this is it, the main project that I will be doing in my Art and Design Foundation Course.

I am currently writting my statement of intent and going threw possible ideas as I want to get this JUST right =)

Update...

My OBSESSION project is coming on really well. I am coming to a point where I am now experimenting with the materials which I have and combining it with light.

Also they are taking a lighting shape and seeing which ones work better than others. All have there strengths and weaknesses. -- I will show these experiments on here soon!

Combining the materials together has mainly been done by heat. Ironing and glue gun are the most successful ways of joining pieces together.
