Talk week.

I got such relevant and positive feedback from Talk week! What a great opportunity to meet new people who share common interests.

Not the greatest photograph, but this is the selected work I presented for my group.

Group in process of critiquing my work!

My series of work has no title,  mainly because I did not want to give any clues to my spectators so that they could have an open frame of mind to critique my work. One of the participants was interested in the way my work was installed 'Four distinct works with four different directions- optical, painterly, pointelle and sculptural aspects are at play'.

Suggestions included the idea of  using scale to create an environment that invites viewers to walk within the work and integrate themselves with the work. A participant commented that my work seems mobile, and therefore could be taken out of the studio and into the public.

Theres a lot more feedback that I had received in that 30 minutes of conversation but I won't reiterate each point here. I know there is still a lot of room for experiment and installation opportunities. I am relieved that I don't feel lost about the direction that my work is heading and I'm excited about what I'll get up to next. I'm surprised I'm not bored of screen printing yet and I think I will try making work at a much larger scale. I've been thinking about using different transparent materials such as glass and mirrors and I'm sure they will provide different conversations at will hopefully lead me onto new unexpected territories.
