Time to hand in the Artist Library assignment, an essay of 1000 words. I chose to write about Frank Miller’s 1986 classic graphic novel, Batman: The Dark Knight Returns. Why did I choose this book? Read on…
For Week 11 we have to prepare and present a five minute presentation on Space being represented in one of our own photos and another in a contemporary photographer’s work. Have a read what I picked and why…
This week we talk about space and how other artists, photographers make use of it in their work. We discuss how it is used, why it works or doesn’t and I find another photographer in Kander who I really enjoy the work of.
This week saw me getting into the colour darkroom once more, this time with some good chemistry in the machine. After this we discussed our essay plans and then the topic of Space.
Busy week this week, first develop a roll of Ilford HP5+, then a tutorial about my practice and lastly a seminar about critical thinking. Fully packed sessions.
A day off from work can only mean one thing, more university work in the form of a day out in Birmingham to visit some exhibitions.
Today saw some more pointless colour printing and a trip to the Eagle Works for a look at an exhibition space for our Easter exhibition
A Practice Review this morning followed by a seminar on preparing for an exhibition. It’s all happening so fast!!
I used a day holiday from work to go and be an assistant at a photo shoot in the Wolverhampton School Of Art for the Black Country Chamber Of Commerce magazine, Prosper.
A busy week this week, apart from not getting any colour printing done. We had a tutorial on our practice, followed by seminars and discussions on Texts and Videos we’ve been looking into.
Watch something task, I watch lots of photography content on YouTube but could I narrow it down? Yes I could. A mixture of street photography, film photography and talk about methods and practice make this an ideal video to discuss.
Week 3 and Sylvia tasked us with reading an essay by Martha Rosler and interpreting it. What does it mean? After reading it a few times I did get something out of it, have a read what my thoughts wre.
First Week and it’s full of seminars,assignments,tasks,information and loads of things that we need to get done in the next academic year.
September ’23 saw the Masters Degree Show take palce at the Wolverhampton Art Gallery, showcasing the work of the graduating students from the Wolverhampton School Of Art. It was great.
This summer, I as selected to exhibit some of my work at the wonderful Shrewsbury Arts Trail, alongside some of the world’s greatest artists.
My second year as a part time Level 4 (first year) student is coming to an end and all my work will soon be submitted. What have I learnt this year ? This quick overview lets you know how I’ve benefitted from being back at school..
This academic year I’ve been working on a project that involves manipulation and disruption of images. This post details where I started from and all the stars that aligned in order for me to produce something I was happy with.
I’d love to be Batman, fighting injustice in the world, but it’s not going to happen. Instead I’ll stand up for the rights of photographers who are told incorrect information regularly. No police involved this time.
SpacePlay came to Wolves to do a concrete Easter egg hunt for three sold out groups of people with the chance of winning a concrete egg based on the MK Building. I volunteered to assist the endeavours and had some fun too.
