Hello fellow artists and final year students who, like me and my college friends, are getting ready for our ‘Degree Shows’.
With the pressure of art history dissertations and professional practice units our of the way, the fun really begins…the creation of something amazing, large scale and exciting!!!
For myself, this is in the form of a paper based sculptural installation which follows on from the enjoyment I had in creating my last paper sculpture, entitled ‘Spirit’.
Its inspiration was the feeling of another ‘presence’, particularly when I am ‘at one’ with nature. It was also my response to the total sense of awe that engulfed me when seeing JAUME PLENSA’s figurative sculptures @ Yorkshire Sculpture Park at the end of summer.
His work and concepts have even led me to write my final thesis on the use of words and letters in 20th century art…Thank you, Jaume, for inspiring me further!
