Lesson Two Reflection: 07/10/21

2021-23 MA Fine Art Digital - introductions, Online Whiteboard for Visual Collaboration (miro.com) So like spoken about in my last reflection I have created this reflection Blog. This is where I hope to use this reflection blog as either an artistic diary which will evolve into something more practical or even like a creative outburst for me. My second lesson was based on everyone having to do their 5 minute presentation on their work. We did ran over time so this will be carried out through to the next lesson. It was brilliant to see everybody's creative styles! We actually got to put a face to peoples artwork and it was so interesting to see this. I find t quite personal too, art can be so personal and a huge connection to ones self and to share this with our peers was nice. It was also a way we can share and create inspiration to everyone. From Colour, techniques, mediums and concepts all are ways to give people inspiration to discuss their work and create connections.

I was one of the many few that didn't have time to do their presentation but I have screen shot how micro works and how we had to all present our work on there. Also I have screen shot how I laid out my presentation. A lot of my work I base it on different aspects of mental health depending on the project. I also have included work that explores my photography, fashion illustration and just a variety of my work to discuss in my presentation different mediums but all as a presentation have some quirk of a look altogether. I look forward to next lesson for some more presentations and the next step for our course.

Brief Summary of some of my work: - The bottom left photograph is based on the fear of menopause which was a collaboration with a therapist exploring this fear that many women have. - Top Left illustration is a new project on 'The pink teapot' where It looks at the elements of control and abuse subjected to the pink teapot as a sign of innocence but its placement shows a sense of controlment. - Both of the right vinyl cuts are about exposure to discomfort. Before working in care This series was looking at identity and how to make it uncomfortable for my self. A distortion to reality and not part of humanities guidelines. However since being a HCA I am encountering uncomfortable situations a lot but it has become such a normality to me that it left me challenged for how I can progress with this work under different circumstances. - I then also showed an example of a fashion illustration 'Ready-To-Wear' as a way of looking at high end fashion being available for all classes.
