I like the way this video looks, although it was taken for documentation purposes I think it is interesting. It shows how interactive the piece is and I can imagine it being displayed. I like the idea of people being able to walk around the piece exploring it from different angles and perspectives. I think having multiple projectors could be an interesting idea to look into, although this could cause confusion within the images.
I chose to look at Hannah Whitaker because I really like her style, I know here work doesn't relate to mine exactly however there are a few similar elements. She uses a lot of repeat patterns and her work looks quite abstract and collaged. She uses a lot of shapes and patters with parts of the human body involved. I really like the colours in her work some are mainly black and white with pops of colour and others have subtle hues running through. I think her way of working is really interesting as well, Whitaker shoots on 4x5 film and then cuts out shapes and places them into the camera. Rather then adding the shapes after she engrains them during the capturing process. In most of her work she uses the human body - usually female - and turns it quite abstract, removing parts of it or only including one specific element for example arms. For me I like to take landscapes and turn them into something else, whether that be a more abstract landscape or a completely new scene. I l...
After my first attempt at using emulsion to transfer my images onto clay wasn't very successful I decided to try again. I tried the technique again onto of what was left over from before. This was a lot more successful than last time. However you can not really make out what the images are of. So although there is colour on the clay now the actual details of the landscape are not visible. I am glad that this was more successful however it still didn't work out as great as I had hoped. I still think using clay could be successful but I am going to try to go a different way about it. Maybe projecting onto clay instead.
