Week 3: Exploration 5 minute ‘sensory drawing’

Making ink is something I’ll never forget because I had so much fun making ink and using different fruits to create a colour for my ink. In the end, I decided to use blueberries and raspberries because they had a bolder colour. The next day after creating my two inks I went to my ‘No-Space’ and blindfolded myself (thanks goodness no one around) and sat silent for 5 minutes just to allow myself to feel, hear, smell and touch my surrounding. I drew what I was imagining around me, my final artwork didn’t look amazing but now whenever I look at it, I feel what I felt and I found it so powerful and meaningful.

Reading: Theory of the Dérive By: Guy Debord Reading: Theories and Documents of Contemporary Art By: Kristine Stiles and Peter Selz Reading: A Tour of the Monuments of Passaic, New Jersey By: Robert Smithson While week 4 reading, I now have a better or more full understanding that becoming an artist or being an artist is more than just creating an artwork to present to the viewers. An artist should throw themselves into the world to create a more unique and soul experience artwork. By using tools, techniques, approaches and methods the artist can picture and channel their views of the world into their work and shoring it with the rest of the world. For example, using derive to present an artwork creates for depths and meaning.

Art in the Environment Week 3: Principle Reading: The Pleasures of Eating By: Wendell Berry Reading: An interview with Stewart Scambler By: Robert Cook is Associate Curator of Contemporary Art, Art Gallery of Western Australia I’ve always had a belief that the stronger the relationship between the artist and their artwork the more meaning and purpose the work has. During week 3 reading I know have a full understanding that the connection between the artist and their artwork creates a meaning. The artist should have a strong connection or a relationship with not just the artwork but also the equipment used to create the artwork such as the tools.
