Next Tuesday I have a formative assessment which involves presenting my work. As a result this week I have been frantically making new drawings and my ideas have moved on.
I started to make movement drawings related to walking around my house. These have been framed/masked by an imaginary floor plan.
Thinking more about framing and containment has also lead to some interesting but very unfinished drawings which I intend to present next week.
In the age of the Selfie my work challenges the conventions of self-portraiture. I make drawings that are informed by my senses - touch, sight, movement. My intention is to use my own sensory experience to create self-portraits but not to reveal a representation of my body. Instead the work is a record of my shifting perceptions. In making the work I am seeking to capture my own vulnerability on a journey of self-discovery.
