- my group really liked my series drawings and this turning of a gimmicky image into something one off and more personal. They thought that the evolution of a single image across a couple of pages worked well.
- They agreed that the one off amongst a grid of mass produced images idea had been exhausted but they thought that I had found an interesting way of working that I should stick to. They suggested just taking one of my images and spending the last 30 pages of my sketchbook making as many versions of it as possible. They suggested using mono print because it is quick and impossible to get the same image twice.
- They also suggested that I look into famous images, which have been transcribed. i.e. the Che Guvara image and the 'Third of May' painting
How am I going to move forward?
- I am going to start by researching the suggested images and looking into how they are transcribed.
- I think that taking one image and exhaustively remaking it is a really interesting concept and I like the way in which it will allow me to utilise the space in my sketchbook. It will really emphasise this idea of the one off as well as allowing me to explore how far you need to push an image for it to be original and one off. However, I would like to use lots of media to do this rather than just mono print - to see how each of the different media have a different effect it and its status.
Media to try:
- Digita manipulation - vecors, painting, pop art effect, oil paint filter
- Ripping up, collaging original image, drawing into photo
- Analogue media - resist, papercut, pastels, paint, pencil, charcoal, thinners
- 3D - food - sugar?, leggo, plasticine
- Monoprint - Line as well as shape and colour
