OK im posting this to just give an insight into my Final Majoy Project and the thinking behind it.
My statement of intent was to basically produce a range of pieces within different situ's using only materials i could find around me. Using urban art as a starting point and then working in the footsteps as such artists as Heather Jansch and Andy Goldsworthy i would produce pieces that would only work in the given location so i would have to think of idea once at the area so it would work with the surroundings. The only preparation i could do was to think of different scenarios and what i would be likly to find.
To make my locations totally random i had a map of North Devon and asked a total of 13 class mates to place a 10p piece sumwhere on the map. I would then draw around the 10p and this would be the area i would be able to work in.I travelled by bike and slept overnight if needs be.
Due to the time scale of the examine i only managed to visit a total of 6 sites.
I only used a basic tool kit i.e. masking tape, penknife, camera and myself etc
Final pieces were a set of framed photos - which earned me a cash prize, a place in another exhibition and A Distinction for my final grade. So one happy chappy here. Although i wudnt have made it through if it wernt for a few people!
Il post my pieces over a few weeks i think. they get better!
