PROMPTS /
- Prepare a final .pdf portfolio of all work completed during this class. This should include research, sketchbook scans, sketches, and all final pieces. Upload the final .pdf to the Online Studio.
The design and length is entirely up to you, but it should be a thoughtfully considered document containing all the work you’ve done this course.
Be sure to include quality images (your photos may need some post-production work — VIEW TIPS FOR DOCUMENTING YOUR WORK HERE) as well as descriptions; image/artwork info; and links for audio and video documentation. If necessary, when adding links for video and audio work, please include a still or representative image so that you can include the artwork info as formatted below.
Label images as follows:
- TITLE, DATE
- medium (materials)
- dimensions ((HEIGHT x LENGTH x WIDTH) — (width added for sculpture/3D)
- edition — (edition added for multiples)
- ratio/duration — (ratio/duration added if video — duration only if audio)
This is a continuation of what I have been working in the previous weeks. I like to create series, even if I keep adding to them years later sometimes. Other times they get completed quicker. The two series I created are called ‘Offshoots’ and ‘The Weave’. See PDF for examples and some explanation. I did not work in my sketchbook, although I wanted to do some sketches of more ideas I have in mind. Looking forward to our last session.
this is a current statement.
These are little black paintings – I did 3 shades of black: green, blue and red. And one called Silence is Black, Black is Silence.
I enclose also a very old large painting done about 20 years ago, where I had written all over about black, from a text by the fashion designer Christian Lacroix, which I love (the text) and I am enclosing it too as a PDF.
Thanks again John for all the comments today, very very useful!!!
Amazing work Marianne! I have been following your insta works too – looks like lots of artwork being developed now.
….developed now on the back of your work in this course!!
I have reworked my zine “A shroud has no pockets” following both of your comments to simplify visually, create a more clear and better story. Now shorter and more to the point
I have a slightly longer version of the zine A Shroud with different cover idea
And pdf of the zine’s key images, some reworked
John I managed to reduce size, but landfill images got squished!
Thanks for your comments today, very helpful.
