Installation Workshop

For this workshop, we were given a selected assortiment of materials and were asked to put it up on the walls - there was really no direction or indication as to how we were supposed to put them up nor what it was supposed to be, the only thing we were told was that we …

Developing My Self-Love Artefact

As a group, we decided to go for masks as our artefacts of self-love. We tasked each other to look into ourselves and think about what self-love meant to us, then, given the conclusion, we would have to create a design for our mask using backing research. Here is the initial sketch that I made …

Modelmaking Workshop

Today I gave modelmaking a try! I've done modelmaking before, but this time was my first time ever creating something using the process of foam shaving. I think for my first try, it went well, but there's a lot that could be improved, and improve I shall with a side project I have decided to …

As someone who has had his fair share of dealing with children and babysitting, I know firsthand how chaotic the experience can get. The superiority complexes, the recklessness, the impishness - the only way I felt …

Poetic science is a sort of …

Start Of Chapter 2 – Word And Image, Process And Practice Brief Breakdown

Hey, all. Has been a minute, hasn't it? Quite literally in every sense of it, too. Haven't blogged, haven't made art, haven't streamed, haven't done anything significant since first year ended.. Though, I'm not here to pity myself or make it into a thing. It happened, that's alright, it happens!.. At least that's the conclusion …

Research (Analysis/Thesis)

I think before I can get into the actual research, I should take a minute and highlight the approach I am thinking of taking so as not to stray away too far from it whilst in the storm of newly found information. Upon seeing my chosen artefact - Damien Hirst's "The Physical Impossibility of Death …
