mini proposals, tutorial notes

On going to the tutorial, my proposal has been:
  • To create a series of images reflecting on our behaviours with the environment, the focus being that the relationship with the land is often unrequited, or that we project ourselves/ desires on to it.
  • This would be based on the following list:

  • I had decided to work in this way, having not had the time to do in depth research on any particular thing and time clashing with other projects. I have been worried that my approach to this is too "surface-value", with no real mind to it, but I also believe I can make something that is... visceral (?), or touching from it. 
  • My main focus, now, is to make something visually interesting, and to just enjoy myself for the last two weeks of my degree work
  • (and show work can be developed further too!)
  • "it's about making sense of the unspoken"
  • create images that display behaviour without being explicitly about the 
  • consider dividing the lists differently, could the focus just be on the "children"?
  • could it be wholly positive? a celebration? (more than observation)
  • do the images need a caption? does this detract from them?
    • I'll paint without, and they can be added after, if further explanation is needed. I would prefer, however, an image to be able to speak for itself.
  • one set of paintings, a5, a4 + one large painting 
  • large painting would be -> the landscape that these behaviours are imposed upon. something neutral? or something (with the purpose of being) beautiful?
  • large painting could be potentially substituted with photograph, collage, or film/animation
Some quick thumbs I've began...
