Had what a difficult but positive tutorial yesterday as I wanted to discuss my proposal for potential degree show space. Left me with a lot to mull over and a sleepless night running through options. Did not update blog following tutorial because felt unsure of how to put in writing complexity and strength of thoughts. Had another discussion today with tutor and all feels more in perspective. What a relief!!!!
I have produce a lot of work most of which I am pleased with, along with a significant amount of supporting photography, drawings and print. My dilemma was what to include in my degree show. Most of my work will be included for assessment but I have been struggling with the balance of showing more work to demonstrate the diversity of approach to my ideas to exploring the narrative behind my work with one strong piece. Following further discussion with my tutor it was a joy to find out he had been thinking along the same lines – concentrate on showing the one piece of work as it will increase the impact of the statement I am trying to make – communication is a complicated process, but one worth pursuing!!!!
We find out what space we are allocated tommorow. Will be good to know as then I can make firm decisions about layout and display.
Feeling very tired now as have been using my wet polisher to finish some of my pieces, why do they always make electrical tools so heavy????
