Project Brief

For this Unit we were to write out our own briefs. So I decided to go off of the layout of most of the briefs that we get on the course which I wrote out in my notebook. Ive decided to upload it onto here for easy access. This is what I came up with.

Project Brief
I am  going to create work related to the chosen theme - Me

I will be doing a series of drawings and experiments related to my Surrealist photography work.

I will also be doing be researching relevant materials that are suitable for the type of sculptures I want to create. As well as referencing relevant artists

I will then go on to do small conceptual sculptures of my ideas in order to get a solid idea of what I want to create, on a bigger more life like scale.

The only thing I will struggle with is the time restraint. It takes a long time to plan and execute sculpture ideas. I'm hoping that if I keep my ideas small and realistic, I will overcome this obstacle.


Week 1 and 2 I will be planing out this brief and finding a starting point in regards to finding the most relevant artist

Week 3 to 5 I will be looking into what materials to buy and try out, then researching ways of achieving what I want to do

Week 6 to 12 I will be focusing on what photos to take forward to create my main ideas and begin constructing miniature concepts

Week 13 to 16 I will be planning out my main ideas and finalizing the ones that work to prepare for my presentation

Surrealism

I feel like I need to learn more about the media and understand what media is best for what I want to do. Wanderer above the Sea of Fog (1818) – Caspar David Friedrich Oil on Canvas Casper David Friedrich is another artist who I think about a lot. He is a fantastic landscape painter from the 19th century  who was part of the German Romantic movement and is considered as one of the most important painters of that time. I chose to talk about this painting mainly because of the feeling I get when I look at it. It gives me a great sense of freedom and peace which I love. It makes me wish that I was the one standing on top of the...

Creative Process - Annie Mulvey

I decided to do a report on my former class mate, Annie Mulvey. She has excelled in the world of art and has gone onto win a few awards along the way. It was so great to have a catch up with her and see her process. these are the questions and answers. 1) Was moving and studying in Aberdeen an easy decision for you?    Yes I think so... in regards of a want to continue to learn and be creative, it was only difficult in the sense that doing art and being creative wasn't a stable career, with a 9-5. When I went to the open day at Gray's I just knew thats where my artist career would flourish. I just felt at home walking the halls on an open day, so that made the decision way easier. It was hard being  away from home, away from what I knew but it mean't I could learn and keep doing creative things. 2) How would you describe your time at Gray's School of art? how challenging was it?   A journey. It was hard, euthoric, tiring, stressful, upli...
