So it has just been reading week and it has been interesting. After seeing lost of people and everyone asking me what i am doing in my art i am at a point where i am AGAIN undecided on what i am doing. I have been finding it really beneficial to talk through with people my art and the qualms that i am having.
Also this week i have been researching GREGORY CREWDSON in great detail as i am writing about him in my essay. I have definitely been captured by his work and at the moment i would certainly say he is my favourite artist - if one can have one!! His work is so mystifying, there is a certain sense of the uncanny through his seemingly normal scenes. I feel like i want to explore this further. I believe that the way in which he is doing this is mainly through his use of people in his work.
This week i am going begin on making my sculpture of the final scene in which the person who has been stalked is killed. Once this scene has been made i think i will film someone in the woods, being hit and dragged into the forrest, i will then see if i can project this over the top of my sculpture and fit it in to make it seem as though this is happening in my work.
Whilst i have been having this slight mehhh in my work i reverted back to sewing and painting. I have painted what i believe to have been the last thing the person saw - the sky. Yet i was not satisfied with this painting. So i then went on to sew a little bit of the final scene, the trees and the mud. It made me think to myself that this is where i am most happy so why am i not doing this in my work?!? I always have the image in my head of an amazing piece of sewn work from venice, and i think that i could really do something with this. The tress which are going to be in my sculptures, i could place over to some hanging draped fabric and then i could project the same film that i will have compiled for my sculpture over the top.
