Plant inspiration - Research & Documentation



Collecting together a range of images as inspiration in to how i could possible display my plants that i collect. Wanting to link my display technique of museology by looking at how museums display plants as well as labelling them. Not only looking at this but also looking at how they are displayed in botanical books. Often the plant is displayed at different stages of its life span including more detailed sections of the plants such as seeds and roots. It has given me an incite into how i could display/preserve plants that i find of interest. Important to uncover what the plant is for identification and when finding out the plants history.

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.

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.
