I’m currently studying Textile Crafts at the University of Huddersfield UK. I am in my third year of practice. I specialise in Print this involves some of the following; Screen printing Laser Cutting Designing prints directed at illustration, advertising and fashion. Drawing plays a big part in the end result. i think keeping a diary of my traces of thought and decisons is very important for me to look back on, and for other people to gain an insight. Enjoy :)

14.10.09 SYNOPSIS WITH ROBERT CLARKE

I had a tutorial with Robert about my synopsis I had written up for my monograph.
He looked through what I had noted down and looked at my work up in the studio. He said I had enough themes, questions and topics to talk about but I need to think about
  • other artists that use signs and signals
  • how technology has an influence on my work, how it changes a drawing,a design, looks different when it comes out of a computer
  • why urban scenes?
  • illustration artists, graphic artists? look at jornals in library
  • album covers - Radio head Don Wood
  • languages
  • public space- different to a gallery
  • scale and perception
  • computer - zoom in zoom out macro + micro
  • Jasper Johns - iconic image
  • Rauschenberg
  • layering, techniques, different stages of my practice- Print
  • limitations using the computer? using text? - lost communication with the viewer are they seeing the same thing Im trying to say?
  • Hay wayne? posters?
This gave me a lot to think about, its just a basic list of topics Im going to look into for my monograph, but the tutorial really helped me select and refine themes within my studio work.
