Experimentations w fabric and projection.

Through this process, we were experimenting further with how fabric can be used as an extension of the body. With this projection, the white stretchy fabric worked as an invisibility cloak. Using a water bottle in front of the projections provided some nice light refractions and warped effects with the visuals. The projection itself is an animation that Molly made for her own major project explorations. We used this as a way to experiment for the exhibition paper, but since we’re using some of our major project for that paper, it translates to visual explorations for this as well.

Interior design in Mauritius.

Today I’m going to talk about interior design and their different sectors, products and services that are available in Mauritius. 

Did you know that in interior design, creative and technicals solutions are merged together to make a good interior environment. 

What i mean is that, Interior design have different aspect that includes conceptual development, space planning, site survey, programming, research , communicating, understanding facilities, construction management and finally execution of the design. (New York School Of Interior Design.2019) An interior designer must have some knowledge of how to make a good interior; by using different textiles, materials and colors. (CSBS.2019)

ARTIST STATEMENT

Gatekeeper

My work reflects the idea of the butterfly effect and how it has applied to the events throughout my life, more specifically, my choices surrounding my profession. When reflecting on the events leading up to my choice of studying fine arts teaching I found that the opinions and judgements of the people around me significantly influenced my choices. Even though I am aware of this influence now, I still feel like these opinions hold me back, as I don’t have the willpower to change my pathway now to what I would of originally liked to pursue.

I have attempted to capture this feeling in my work ‘Gatekeeper’. The work shows two hands bound together, attempting to break free but never really getting there. These visuals aim to symbolically represent feelings of being controlled or influenced by external sources. Hands are used to represent work and our skills and actions, therefore by them being bound it reflects the idea of my creativity and passion being trapped by the influence of my peers.

I have chosen to stylistically depict my work in an anaglyph style so that when viewed with 3D glasses the fist appears to be a heart-like form to represent my passion and desire to pursue my dream pathway of becoming a vet.

The title ‘Gatekeeper’ intends to personify these opinions as a metaphorical guard or supervisor of my ability to back my own choices, and the gate being the pathway to achieve this. My work intends to connect with my audience in a way that is personal and to evoke empathetic connections to these feelings of being trapped or controlled.

Conceptual Development - 05/06

My work explores concepts surrounding the future of biology, energy and genetic engineering. Living in a society where people are surrounded by images and digital culture daily, will these three concepts help create a world that alters ecosystems? To what extent will visual appeal and popular culture test our natural environments? 

My work shows three anaglyphs that have been created from digital photographs of bamboo plants. My concept is inspired by Japanese culture and society. The anaglyphs can be viewed with or without the 3D glasses. 

The anaglyphs aim to challenge your perceptions of reality and question the limits of the photo as a physical art form.

These photographs made it feel like the person is in a dream. The fact that the girl in the photos is sleeping in a forest creates a surreal view.

Concept Development 25/10

Model:

When I was about 4 or 5 I had a Pa (Grandfather) who would constantly tell my family and I that I would grow up to be super tall like my dad (his step-son), and because of that tied with my “beauty”, I would be a world famous model... Looking back at it now I think it was a hilarious prophecy as I am 21 years old and I stand at the mere height of 5 foot 3, indicating that I take after my Maltese mother who is also short-statured. Right up until I was 11  he would tell me every time he saw me that I would be a model one day, but I lost contact with him after he had the divorce with my Nan. His prediction fell forgotten, but i believe if I had kept in contact with him he would have encouraged me to follow that pathway still to this day.

Vet:

From as early as I can remember I have always loved and owned pets. Until I was about 7 I had lived on property so I had every kind of pet you can imagine. There has not been a time in my life where I haven’t owned either a dog, cat, bird, hermit crab, guinea pig or rabbit/s at one time. Even now I own three dogs that I care for better than myself. Still to this day I believe there would be no better profession than to be a vet, vet nurse, zoologist, or even just an owner of a pet kennel or sanctuary. I had always told my family that I wanted to be a vet when I was older, but I was constantly told that I wouldn’t be able to do it because I have the tendency to faint over blood. When I was in year 10 and considering my subject choices for senior school I considered choosing a science-based timetable so that I could follow a pathway that would enable me to become a Vet, but my careers adviser told me that I should reconsider this pathway because the university degree for Veterinary science was 6 years and I would need an ATAR of 90+ (which at the time my grades did not reflect). Because of this I chose 0 science focused subjects and followed a timetable based on my other passion of art. After the HSC when we started to apply for universities I still wanted to apply for Veterinary Science at the University of Sydney, but again my careers advisor told me that it would be unlikely I would be considered because of my subject choices. I went on to get an ATAR of 88.35. Attending a rural school meant I received 5 bonus points, which put me up to the ATAR of 93.35. This meant that if I had applied for veterinary degrees my application would of indeed been considered despite my subject choices. Now that I am out of high school and I have seen all the different pathways into university, I could have been more than capable of obtaining this degree whether I needed to do bridging courses or not. As you can imagine, I don’t have very fond feelings towards that careers adviser now.  

Having a gap year to travel:

When I was in year 12 I contemplated having a gap year in between finishing school and going to University to travel and work. My parents insisted that I go to university to get a degree because that was “the only way to make money these days”, “my brains would be wasted if i didn’t” and “I would waste a year of my life where I could just smash out uni and be working full time by the age of 23″. My careers adviser had also told our entire cohort that those who have gap years would be more academically disadvantaged than those who went straight onto tertiary study, and those who put off going to university risked loosing their offers because universities were beginning to change their ATAR cut-offs and they may be affected. Considering these influences I chose to not have the gap year. Half way through my first year of uni I heard a hack story on Triple J that discussed the benefits of having a gap year. They said that a recent study had revealed that students who take a gap year before university are more motivated and go on to achieve better results. Now in my third year of my degree I have never felt more drained and unmotivated in my life. I sincerely regret not taking the gap year to explore the world and get new perspectives on life, as these may have altered my choices concerning a profession.

Artist/photographer:

When I had decided that I wanted to pursue an artistic pathway, my parents told me that I wouldn’t make any money as an artist. They insisted that I do a teaching degree behind my arts degree so that I always had the security of full time employment

Professional soccer player:

I started playing soccer when I was 10. I quickly grew a strong passion for it and wished one day I could play it as a profession. I was the top goal scorer in my team 2 years in a row and I was selected for the under 15′s rep side. When i asked my under 16′s coach how to go pro he said that there was no future for women’s soccer and I wouldn’t get noticed living in a rural area.

Hair dresser/beautician:

There was a time in year 12 I considered pursuing hair dressing or beauty as a profession because I was very interested in the field. My parents, friends and teachers told me that I would go no where in life and “wouldn’t earn enough money to buy my my own home one day”. One of my good friends left school in year 11 to do a hairdressing apprenticeship, she has just gotten a loan and put a deposit on her own house and owns her own business.

Concept Development 24/10

Project idea - Self-portrait video series 

6 videos in grid layout depicting different pathways/professions I could have undertaken in my life e.g. vet, hairdresser, model, 

Layer videos with oversized mouth that speaks all the things people told me about those pathways that lead to me abandoning them

concept acts as a depiction of the butterfly effect - making a joke out of all the things people said to me and how I got to where I am today

i was told the majority of these phrases during my senior years of high school as I would be enrolling in university - the entire agenda behind what they told me was a complete joke because now I see there were multiple ways and benefits for me undertaking these pathways and not just through university

Conceptual Development 2/10

Creating just light scribbles as work seems a bit boring.

After looking at double colour exposures by Helmo I would like to create something technically similar - portrait photography of relatives/friends and layer an image over the top that symbolically represents a particular event in their life that they consider significantly influential to how they got to where they are today

need to consider cost of printing $$$

Conceptual Development 10/09

I felt that responding to events from the perspective of the butterfly effect was narrowing my practice, so I am instead conveying the idea of the butterfly effect as a whole rather than from specific examples of it.
