It's so annoying my ideas were all so clear in my head but the second that I walked into cop I got confused and couldn't express them clearly at all! Why does this always happen? It makes it really difficult to get good feedback.
What feedback am I going to use to push my ideas forward?
- It was suggested that I really look into what separates fine art from commercial art maybe play around with blurring the distinction between the two. Everyone thought that this was a more interesting route than the simple exploration of ways of representing status.
- The images, where I looked at reproduction appealed to everyone in my group (the reproduced and the one off being something which quite distinctly separates the two areas).They suggested that I try taking a photograph (my own or commercial), rip it up, collage it, then try and redraw it to see what happens (moving from something commercial to something one off). They also suggested drawing into a piece of commercial art and to look at the reproduced pictures in Wilko, which have the texture of a canvas printed on them. Lastly they suggested looking at mass produced images and objects, which are expensive and collectable.
I think that all of these are interesting ideas and they have really helped me get out of the rut that I was stuck in. I did really want to try to move away from collage and using appropriated imagery, to using more simplistic shapes of my own. However, at the moment I'm not sure where to take that, so I am going to complete my 30 pages following my feedback before reevaluating.
