Documentation seminar - Notes & Reflection


  • Documentation on social media- will mostly likely by Instagram, not the most professional platform as more used throughout the making process but easiest way to introduce audiences to my artwork
  • Website used as a more professional platform, including more completed works 
  • If i cant take professional images myself then its important to not risk poorly taken photos and get a professional to document completed works
  •  Important to be more selective into what is included in my research file, maybe don't include failed attempts and irrelevant information
  • Must include landmark changes - important to pinpoint changes that have an influential impact on the work i currently create
  • Important to reflect on whether i have graphic design skills, could i possibly collaborate with a graphics student or even ask for advise 
  • Need to think about whether its right that it should be printed - if so how should it be printed, a hard back book or bound, what suits my work best 
  • There is a feeling of satisfaction when handing in a hard copy, a feeling of accomplishment
  • VLE resources, look at professional and student 3A3b 
  • Important to make documentation file relevant to my practise
  • Artist book (images of documentation) or documentation report
  • Important to be selective with text that is included - professional document so refrain from coequal language. 
  • Its ok to use quotes and images that aren't my own as long as i state where they were sourced. 
  • Make sure all images are of high quality - professional images of fabric pieces need to be done.
  • Images for degree show publication can be me drawing my ides or the drawings them selves, doesn't need to be a completed piece of work.

Abramovic Case Study - Research & Evaluation

Performance artist Marina Abramovic adopts a territory where both audience and artist coincide throughout the entirety of her performance. Abramovic’s early career commenced during the 1970’s an era where performance art was ridiculed, only fuelling her aspirations to prove critics wrong. Abramovic’s rhythm series, which constitutes of five individual performances from 1973 to 1974, scrutinizes the tensions between abandonment and control. At the forefront of Abramovic’s rhythm series is Rhythm 10 (Abramovic, M. 1973). Rhythm 10 consisted of Abramovic recording herself stabbing between the fingers of her left hand with 10 knives, as fast as she could; changing knives every time she cut herself. When all knives were used Abramovic would rewind the tape and playing it back, she then began re-performing the actions to the rhythm of the tape. Abramovic wilfully or not, subjected her performance to a rhythm over which she had limited control. Abramovic claims each cut manifesting itse...

Gingko Tree Research

Evidence in Sketch Book After collecting all of my research together i have been extremely drawn to the plants resilience, only enhanced further by its ability to with stand a nuclear blast. From this the plant becoming a symbol of eradicating nuclear warfare and actually being presented as a 'Prize' to cities who become nuclear free. A plant having such a strong history and is very symbolic in multiple ways is something i'm extremely interested in exploring further. While investigating the ginkgo tree and seeing how this may become present in my artwork will be an on going process but i know i must not neglect other investigations - not to put all my eggs in one basket.  Research - Websites https://e360.yale.edu/features/peter_crane_history_of_ginkgo_earths_oldest_tree https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-manchester-29920359 https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/obituaries/8941542/Akihiro-Takahashi.html https://www.nytimes.com/2017/08/04/opinion/the-whis...
