So the Degree show for the MA Students graduating this year ran from Friday 28th - Wednesday 2nd August. Some lovely people and some amazing work, it will be me this time next year... Heres a sneak peek.
There are many different types of artist within my MA course and sometimes we like to do things together. Simon Merrifield is a performance artist who plays with comedy, spontaneous acts and interactions within different situations with others as part of his practice. A couple of months ago he decided to do something spontaneous on a one to one basis with volunteers from the MA based on how we originally meet/became friends. We combined the interests in our practices and a experience I have of a performance of Simon's. Towards the beginning of the course I went to see Simon perform at the Turner contemporary in Margate and this combined with my giant spirograph become the outcome of this collaborative mix. You can check out Simon's work here >>> http://simonmerrifield.weebly.com
The images below are the result of the previous video. With the us of Frog tape I have been able to give more consideration to the edges, construction and segments of the drawing. This not only add another depth to the drawings but also acts as to constrict and confine the charcoal lines. The lower tack tape also gave a much cleaner line when removed without damaging the paper or original drawing. |
