Fine Art
In Fine Art, we were given a brief introduction to the subject from the tutor, and shown some examples of a range of fine art pieces. Some of the examples included work from Gerhard Richter and John Stezaker. After taking inspiration from these artists, we started working with collages, paints, pastels etc to create our own fine art pieces, which can be seen below.
Textiles
In Textiles, we were working with ink and materials. The ink was rolled out onto a plastic wallet, then had a piece of paper/cloth placed on top of it. Drawing on the paper/cloth transferred the ink from the plastic to the material, making the image with the ink. My examples can be seen below.
After printing on cloth, we stitched over the top to make the picture in thread instead of ink, making a range of images instead of just the ink prints. Although my piece is unfinished, the example can be seen below.
I really enjoyed the printing part, and working with ink, it was similar to work I'd done previously in photography with thinks like cyanotypes, so the process was relatable. I'd definitely use this process again, but try to make much neater, more detailed pieces instead of the simple, untidy one that I made. Stitching and sewing are things I will avoid in future work, I was open minded to start, but it was too repetitive and simple in my opinion.
