GENERATING IDEAS tasks
I did not find the activity easy at all. It was a rush, time deadline. We were given only 3-5 minutes for each task. I felt like if I do a mistake, I will not have an opportunity and time to fix it. If I screw it up, it will stay that way. I am sure it is not my cup of tea, I do not like this rhythm. I find myself more productive and creative to the measured rhythm.
Here is what I have done. Let's get starteddddd :)
FINAL BEST IMAGES and INSPIRATION
I was inspired by those artists whose photos I used. However, I had an aim to do that task not just copy their ideas and do the same with my photos, but I felt like I want to use their ideas and add something creating new possible variants. On that point, the first image was not about cutting out, it was burning out. Whereas, the second one was not about stretching but crushing. I see my own concept in this. I have been developing the one underlying theme during these 5 weeks. That is all about changing and personal transformation. As I said in blog 2 I am going through wholly new things such as the university, moving out to a new country, living by myself, I am growing and all I have created carry the connotation that a completely new person has been already waiting for me. The first photo demonstrates the meaning of coming up new personality at a time when the old one has already started to burn. What is more, significant aspects there are emotions, they also reflect the topic.
At the same time, the image with crushing element represents feet (as a symbol of new personality) are pushing out old one which is obviously scared.
I was looking for creators who add and change the sense converting examples of photos. I went deeper into Andy Warhol art just by searching on the Internet and Youtube. I feel related to him and I tried to learn something through his art pieces and biography.
Returning to the task, I do like working with paper, it gives you a lot of space to create, you can come up with a different amount of ideas. I am not thrilled about the cutting technique, because it is more about design than art. I understand art as an expression of what is inside at the moment, observing yourself creating at the moment, with cutting it is more about thinking not to transfer emotional states.
During this photography project, I felt like I was stuck with a few techniques and cannot make new ideas to create interesting images. I tried to show what I meant but still feels mediocre.
5 WEEKS MODULE CONCLUSION:
I have improved my knowledge in art techniques and examples of art I have never seen and its creators. I started to read a lot about animators and signed up for an art magazine about new cartoons. Initially, I had no interest in the art industry. Nevertheless recently I realised that I should understand the relevance of what I am doing.
Also, I have become content with my ability to create just for learning and finding new. Previously I used to create only when I had an inspiration and could not stand making something forcing myself, but now it seems like I enjoy it. I do create and do not expect a masterpiece.
