Sustainability project (2)

Finished the sustainability project at last.
My piece is a direct comment on sustainability in general.
Now I have to document the sustainable work practices I followed.
Using gloves and non toxic glues, eco aware disposal etc.

Sustainability Project (1)

New project for NMIT Visual Arts - we are to create a work and describe how we have used sustainable work practices.
Ready to get down and messy with this art work. Here are some of the raw materials.

Excursion to Brunswick St

Gathering material for next assignment which is about collage and layering with a theme - the city. There were some good images available on walls.

Painting - exploring colour and glazing

Experimenting with glazes and layering

Unravelling

theme for new work

Greg Neville's exhibition

Went to see Greg's exhibition. The Dissolving Man.
A powerful and moving examination of masculinity and introspection. Displayed on three large screens were excepts from a wide range of movies. The images showed head shots of men considering, thinking, in their own worlds. The effect was engrossing and engaging.

Accompanying the 3 channel video was a display of photographs of action hero toys, distorted/posed so as to appear to me vulnerable rather than invincible.
These large prints were quite confronting - and again, very powerful.
So pleased to have gone to this
