ABC’S

the abc project i was really sick for and did not hand in on time however i did hand it in but i forgot to photograph it. i also missed the critique so there isnt a lot to say about it. i enjoyed looking for letters and numbers around savannah though, it was pretty cool. people tend to look at you funny because your taking pictures of random pointless stuff

Map

this project was a really simple project. just ruin a map, and create it into something that is significant. therefore the first step was to get a map, any map. i got a SCAD map, i painted on it, glued receipts on it, glued over it, inked it, drew on it. then i burned it. when i did this, i had lots of just black ash left, and some whole bits of map left over.

i then looked at the parts i had left and i thought what can i do with this to attach it to my emotional value?

so i pieced them together to look like the British Isles and the countries surrounding great Britain. I made the UK bigger so it was the focal point, this is because its my home country and i miss home. as you can se below the process and order which i went in. this is the map in whole before it got burned

Jack and Jill

so this project was about the nursery rhyme jack and jill, and we were put into groups, i was with juliana, Laura and Mariana. we had a really varied talented group, as juliana is really neat and clean, and mariana can draw really well and is has really creative ideas and also laura draws very well particularly animated typed theme.

we made our story about jack and jill at the circus, and i really loved our design, it did not get the feed back i had hoped it was going to get, but never mind. the critique said we should of used the circus theme and colour in every design to be more representative however i never like to make anything obvious, i love art when you have to think about it some.

 

this was a successful project.

Sound map

In class we were asked to go somewhere where you could observe the sounds that were around you, and make a sound map, i didn’t really understand what the objective was at first, but really you could interpret that map any way you wanted to and mine was very basic but it was all i heard, as i sat outside, it was mainly people, cars and buses, and birds. but also the wind blowing the trees.

i used colour to experience the sound on paper as well and i went for a kind of animated type themephoto-8
