Reading and watching:
- I have been looking at a lot of photobooks for research for putting together a narrative for A3
- Looking at lots of mags as above
- Also looking online – Lenscratch, Aperture, FOAM etc
- In spite of all that still not clear!
- Reading Will Gompertz on 150 years of modern art
- A very short book on Art Theory
- Continued reading Creative Vision
- Finished watching the Disability Century
Oddly enough (and perhaps because of), despite the plethora of available talks, shows, etc on the web I am having great difficulty getting organised to watch them. Either they are at an awkward time (and I then forget to go back) or I just do not get my act together
- Do a diary of things to watch
- Actually watch them
- Brief write up
Thinking and doing:
- Almost finished A3, got an idea on the story and done lots of research
- Had an idea for A4 (images and text) – using words generated by thought about my recently deceased mother
- Continuing with the Coursera on Modern Art
Photography:
- Continuing with lockdown diary
- Changed it slightly to be less rigid
- Included more experimental photoshop work
- addded in taking pics of people walking their dogs (a la Arnatt)
- Started playing with calotypes
- Started with pack of pre-done paper
- Thinking about how to make my own
- Collecting plant material on walks
- Experimenting with microwave pressing – using cardboard
