Project Two – Final Piece
Hi everyone! This is my final piece and also my exhibition piece for Project Two. Unfortunately the exhibit has been and gone, but here are some photo’s of my piece at the exhibit. I will be posting a full catalog of the exhibit later on.
This project has evolved over time from wanting to create my own imaginary world, to wanting to explore space through interactivity. This project is a continuation from project one, and has become something else in its own rights. I had a lot of fun during this project and I’m so happy from the outcome. I can’t wait for my second year at university where I’ll have even more freedom to make what I want.
As always, I hope you enjoy.
Final Major Project
Here is an update on my Final Major Project.
My project is about creating fictional worlds, using mark-making to create landscapes and planets. During the project, I have been listening to music from the video game ‘Minecraft’, and from that I’ve been drawing out the music, creating organic shapes and designs. ‘Minecraft’ is the main force behind the formation of this project, but it also backed up with the Visual Communications project, where I drew to music and created my own window into space. I chose to use mark-making from the beginning of this project, but I had no idea that it would lead to creating multiple drawings.
I have recently came to a point in which I need to focus on a different pushing force and create something from these drawings, so I have took more inspiration from ‘Minecraft’ and have created boxes which have my drawings printed onto the faces. I’m trying to bring the ‘Minecraft’ world into reality, and using my drawings to create a new style of landscape in the ‘Minecraft’ style. I also have the idea of using animation, and collage to enhance the drawings.
I’m still in the process of making work and planning an exhibit, so there will be more of this project but for now, enjoy.
Final Major Project
For my Final Major Project (FMP), I have decided to do ‘Fictional Worlds’. I’m still not 100% on what the main idea is or how to fully describe it, but what I’m doing is listening to ‘Minecraft’ music and then translating that music into drawing. I started this project looking at mark-making, and the translation between other forms of art (e.g. music, sculpture, paintings.) to marks (drawing). I started to look at Sol LeWitt, and how his methods use precise rules. I then started to look at my previous project Visual Communications, and how I translated that music into drawing; from this, I then started to go straight into drawing the ‘Minecraft’ music.
From then to now, I don’t really know how to explain the project, so I will update you all when I am further on with my work.
Below are a few images of my drawings and a link that will take you to YouTube; the video will contain the music I am listening to. Enjoy.
