Showing the photographs that I had collected over the past week in tutorial reached a positive response. I was proud of how they had come out, especially some of the colours that had been brought to life through the use of mirroring/ the sunshine. In terms of where to take them next, I think that I would like to turn them into a physical object, possibly fabrics or repeat patterns, but I'm not sure where that will fit into our exhibition at this point in time...
I have been feeling really lost in terms of where I 'fit' into the roles for our Design Festival. Assigning key jobs/ roles to individuals has really helped to see where it is that people are enjoying working, and to see where possible collaborations may be able to form in the last few weeks of the project. As we are in such a big group, it has been difficult keeping up with exactly what everyone is up to, so getting it written down was really helpful.
I'd placed myself into the roles of manifesto writing, making filters/ photographing and possible projections, as I felt as though these were where my strengths would lye. Saying this, I still felt as though these 'roles' were unable to define exactly what it was that I wanted to make for our exhibition. I really enjoy photography, a skill that I am constantly using. I simply just didn't want to 'take photographs', I want to do something more with them, what that is, I still haven't decided. This does make me feel a little uneasy about the coming weeks' worth of work. I feel I need to take myself away from the group and focus on what it is that I enjoy doing, possibly looking back at my previous unit sketchbooks ad looking at how I can incorporate my practice into this unit of work.
