"Art is running away without leaving home." "Art is anything you can get away with." "Art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time." "Art is our ONLY salvation from the horror of existence."
Level 3 to Level 5: Summer Project - Self
For our summer project we were asked to produce a piece of fine art using non traditional medias, so I looked into using spray paints, bottle lids, paper mache, drawing with thread and even old broken earphones. I started by thinking about what the project was. It was was based on 'Self' which seems easy, but once I started trying to think of ideas I found it really difficult but I feel this was more down to being asked to use non traditional medias and being out of my comfort zone but once I had started to think of medias I could use, ideas started to come to me. I thought about my interests and found myself at music and tattoos which then led me onto design a sort of logo which is the background image of my blog. I then took this on to drawing myself on a spray painted piece of cardboard before going over the facial features with some purple thread.
After this I arranged the bottle tops that I had been collecting over the duration of the summer around the figure and once I was happy with the composition of the lids I started to superglue them down.
