Task two Bloomberg, new contemporaries, 2015

This book is about the exhibition that takes place every year where thirty-eight upcoming artists from all over are asked to partake in an exhibition together, they were given the subject theme of that year was gender. There was a wide variety of materials used and a few interesting ways, not only did the outcome matter but the process in which they took to get there meant a big deal.

I was impressed by the work that I found within the book, from artists like Hannah Ford who creates three minute videos to artists like Pandora Lavender who uses a more 3D form for her work. They had a wide range of styles none of which were the same. I feel like this book represented how art has changed over the years and how there may be some traditional practices used but there are still new ones being created and used all the time.

task one

We were given the task of creating a passport, it didn’t have to be something like an actual passport but something that represented us and our journey’s throughout our life. I wanted to incorporate my family and my upbringing. Showing a representation of how my history and journey to now has made me the person who I am today.

I started by creating a booklet using colours from both my flags on my dads side and my mums I then used acetate between each colour as a method of combining both parts of me. I then added words or drawings to them to tell a story of places I’ve travelled and my life before coming to university. I done quick sketches of landmarks in places I’ve visited, I dedicates a couple of pages to show my experience of moving from London to Winchester sketching the differences between each place. The cover of my passport has a drawing of flowers and crystals which represent my love for nature and but I also done it in a way that reminded me of a traditional passports layout. I tried to keep some of the look of a traditional passport but also showing who I am through the pages.Snapchat-849311854Snapchat-41512196Snapchat-91827977
