Uncompleted brief: To this point I have only analysed the content of the set. There is no manipulation or highjacking of the elements to create something new.
✐ Tutorial Notes
☞ Feedback:
• “Analytical point of view not creative at all”
• Look at Japanese Woodblock prints
• Look at grids and rules of image composition
• The idea is to look at the pictures in a different way or in more detail
✶ References:
▶︎ Try next:
• Take elements and combine into one
• Remove the colour or look at the colour palette of the images
• Cropping in different to discover something new
• Look at the detail of the pictures
• Contextualise / break them / change medium of work
• Try reading the required reading material to see if it sparks any ideas
❄︎ Reflections :
• When analysing the content of this set, I did not think ahead of what could be the outcome or what medium to use to create “something new” with it. I only observed the content of the photographs, although arguably perhaps superficially and too literally.
• Some comments mentioned in this session were not constructive or helpful.
• A helpful comment from a creative colleague of mine from outside UAL, was: “When I feel stuck on a project, it’s usually because I overlooked something, did not do enough research or missed a step. It could be useful for you to go back to the start and the brief to find if you missed anything that can help you push it forward”.
