Our dissertation and semester A feedback has been…feeded back…and I’m pretty happy with my marks. Not amazingly spectacular but a little better than I’d estimated, so I can start the final semester with a smile (hoorah!).
We’ve recently had a rearrangement of our studio spaces at college, and I’m so much happier with my new space. I hadn’t realised how much the studio space affected how I worked. It now feels much more conducive to productive working (very important considering the final exhibition has suddenly become very real and worryingly close!)
I’ve been working on some layered ‘boxes’, and have just started on some ‘exploded’ versions of these boxes, to take away their sense of confinement (in other words, remove the frames and sides – open up the box). I’ve set myself the challenge to get one finished by the weekend (slightly feeling the pressure to produce more work now the dissertation has finished!).
Lastly, I’ve been ebaying and charity shopping again and picked up some great vintage anatomy books and glass domes – there’s an idea developing involving 3D layered structures displayed under the glass domes, like taxidermy or a biological specimen. Lots of plans, just need to stay focused!
