This is a case of getting my act together again. I’ve left this for far too long due to dissertation and things just seeming to build up all over the place. But now that that’s all out of the way I can finally concentrate again. Just because I haven’t been updating here doesn’t mean I having been making notes about what I need to post.
Backtracking some time, we had the presentations about our work and I feel that mine could have gone better.
I feel as though the tutors misinterpreted the intention of my work, not catching onto the darker, nightmarish natures of fairy tales and folklore that I mean to express, they seem to have honed in on and focused on the sexualisation of childhood imagery, which is not what I want to look at.
I think now is definitely the time to move away from the pretty little fairy pictures and concentrate on the dark environments that I always intended to create using the chalk pictures and sketches as initial planning for my digital work – though I am now unsure that creating custom wallpaper to display the large scale work is really the way to go.
Either way, I need to look at a wider range of material and move forward from there.
