Easter Planning & Organising

I have been organising and sorting out my multiple projects within this body of work. I aim to name each project and every final piece/design, meaning I have a narrative for my work, which will enable me to have a disccuion surrounding it.

Using the competitions as projects has helped give me a focus as I find that I easily become unfocused and struggle often with the context. Assigning my projects with a mini brief or context direction has already helped me use my time efficiently.
I registered interest for Bishops arts prize, and need to ensure I make work relevant for this brief toe> time to think about that!

Bishops arts prize, reminding my self of the brief and my register of interest >

I have realised how much my work has moved forward since then. I have worked bigger, onto fabric, using procion and a combination of industry processes. I have mentioned my passion for working on unusual materials in my register of interest for the Bishops Arts Prize. Should I work onto wood? Would this broaden my portfolio and show my skills? Or should I stick with fabric I have already been working on as I have a limited amount of time?


My register of interest:

“ I am intrigued and eager about the possibilities that surround the theme, Glimpses of Glory. I find something glorious about my surroundings, so I use it as a starting point in my textiles practice. I am attracted to weathered surfaces and signage, as well as urban grids and shapes. This forms my abstract designs and ‘cut out’ style graphic prints. I experiment with ordinary materials, inviting brilliance to the surface by applying these marks and patterns to wood, papers and plastics. This wonderful project will allow me to ponder the beauty and joy of ordinary, unnoticed, everyday wonders.  “
