Presentation of work

Overall i was happy with the presentation and final work. I felt i had really pushed myself and tried a lot of new techniques and mediums. through out the production of the piece i really struggled with the digital aspect of the work and i felt that the photo shoped digital aspect of the work didn't add any value, especially considering the amount of time i spent on developing that side of the work.
I really enjoyed the simplicity and of the sculpture and the shadows projected on the wall.





 The feedback of the group was fairly positive, the one bit of feed back that i got from Cornelius was that the music didn't fit with the work and it was to much like a TV add. I think this was a fair comment and something to consider for the future in that no element is neutral. every element needs to be considered in how it impact on the overall piece.







PROJECT ONE
This was a nice engagement with the project Joel. I think you could have done with more time but I feel you have brought together some interesting strategies. To me the music was an un-necessary elaboration and the Photoshopped imagery did not quite work. The shadow play of your sculptural pieces for me was the strongest element. Hopefully, from doing this project you will have developed ideas for others. C

YOUR BLOG
Your blog looks quite elegant Joel but as a documentation of 6 weeks work, it seems a little thin. Your comments as you document the construction of your project are not very helpful or insightful. At the end you warm up a bit as you discuss the other artists you have found. As you document your own work try to forge a conversation between your work and the work of the others. I feel you need to do a lot more reading around the theme of contemporary visual art. This will help you put what you are playing with in a more cogent context. P



 



This was my grades and comment from Cornelius, I agreed with his comments on Project One around the the music and the Photoshopped imagery, i will difenetly take this on board. I feel i have learnt a lot during the process of this work in developing more skills in photophop, sculpture and exploring the use of shadows.


The comments  about my blog where a bit surprising, My understanding of a blog was to reflect and document a creative process. But i must be wrong as it is clear that what Cornelius is wanting is something that i am not doing.
