Tuesday Night Print Club saw us look into the magical world of Silk Screen Printing. Laura showed us around the Screen Printing area and helped us make sense of the overwhelming nature of everything in there. We were introduced to the equipment, processes, waste handling and just how messy it can get.

This week saw the second half of the Riso learning and a use of Gibbs’ reflective cycle to analyse how we got on with the Riso Printing sessions.
This week was packed, with some Research for year long project, reviewing our feedback from Semester 1, Riso Printing (next post) and a group crit that took up a long time but yielded some great information.
Alice gave us a challenge to plan a shoot and carry it out using inspiration from the surrealism lecture on Friday. See what I got up to with my wardrobe door.
This first week back took a turn for the surreal in the Friday lecture on Surreal Narratives using Duane Michals to talk us through the important points.
Sarah x 2 came to talk to us today about their practice and how they are better individual artists when working together. Oh and lots of food discussions too.
The lat Tuesday before Christmas and with some colour printing complete I stood and had an informal chat with Niki that was very enlightening.
What about a nice little bit of Typography on a Friday afternoon then? Lovely stuff. Some of this really appeals to my super picky and pedantic nature..
Research is an important part of my degree course and it’s not something that comes easy to me. See how I get on looking into the work of Alma Haser.
This week is a review week of Semester One and all the work we’ve created up until this point. What do I need to improve upon, what can I do next to try different things? See what Alice and I talked about.
What happens when you have an “original” idea of something to make. You find out that it’s been done before but that doesn’t stop me having a play with it…
Night & Day in Tokyo and other cities around the world. My work led me to look at work by Liam Wong and Masataka Nakano who are both extraordinary photographers.
For this semester an Exhibition Review is required, here is my review of the excellent Chris Killip Retrospective in The Photographers Gallery London.
Today we talked about how work can be re-interpreted and used to make original pieces of art. On top of this we learnt how to properly reflect on our work..
Time to do some more printing ready for some chopping up and a tutorial chat about why I love breaking things open…
