Going Visual with it & questionnaire: FMP (final major project)

Some more quick snapshots from my sketchbook. These pages are all about some quick visual responses to my research I have been collecting. Whether that meant collecting, images, colours or textures. 

Also been looking at the answers to the questionnaire that I set up online. Some really interesting answers to get me thinking!

Final Major Project: Educating myself about home

 Lots & lots & lots of reading to begin my project.

Educating myself as to what is a 'home'.

 Researched travellers, refugee camps, communes and squatters, 

in order to broaden my mind and to move away from my own ideas of what a home is.

 I've enjoyed reading but the next challenge will be taking these ideas into something visual.

Starting my final major project!

Happy Easter to you!

It really has been a while since I was last on here. I ain't going to make excuses, but I have been busy creating loads of things which I hope to be posting up here shortly! 

Just a quick post today to give you the opportunity to shape some of my future work......

I want YOUR opinions/comments/views/thoughts/feelings about ‘home’!!

Interpret the questions however you wish and answer in as much or as little depth as you like! This is for my Art Foundation final major project; your answers will help direct my work for this project. I will be beginning to work on this project in the next week or so. THANK YOU!  

The Great Depression: Research

 





Spent this afternoon reading up on 'The Great Depression' 1929. The saddest feature of the depression was the queue of unemployed workers. People who lived through the Depression have never forgotten the anguish of those times, the stark contrast between rich and poor, the absuridity of food being destroyed and the helplessness of man to order his own affairs.

I think these images really highlight this helplessness and desperation, in a simple, honest, understated way; they are just looking for a job.
