- Textiles - drawn to through family history
- finds it difficult to make art for the sake of making art
- context, research, response
- handelstreetprojects.com
- values in relation to how the practice operates..and interrogating in order to arrive at an outcome
- window works installed into the walls
- Using empty shops in central London - jewellery shop window works, filled with consumer products.
My methodologies within my practice:
- Good to have a deadline as it helps keep discipline.
- Work well under pressure.
- Well & badly made works - my work relies on some skill to be created, a polished look or seductive finish - if this is juxtaposed with something that is badly made, then it is affirmed by something that is well made. (My last final piece had elements of being well made from the polished detailed surface, juxtaposed by the inside of the piece that represented the labour / roughly made element of the piece).
- Work is led my process and materials.
- Aesthetic - surface perfection.. value...
- Dual critique / political approach - a critique of commercial artwork as well as a desire to be to the perfect standard.
- Reflective journal to help writing an artist statement. Reflective journal helps to interrogate what I want to say.
- My practice works by: critique of commercial art, and desire to create a perfect surface... material exploration... aesthetics... designing in my sketchbook, then trying it out, then realising my designs don't work and re-designing...
- The details within the materials - when i'm happy, it's an innate response to when I know the work is finished.
Ideas for exhibition :
- Surfaces, focus on the surfaces and then think of a form of display.
- Work is driven from value and aesthetics.
- Maybe the work will be in a dark room, think about staging.
