Major Project

- Further Refining 

After my presentation we came to the conclusion that I need to compact the idea even further, we spoke about potential directions to take the idea to make it as successful as possible. We spoke about creating an exhibition/campaign for a museum, I like this idea as it gives me more to create and also allows me to explore parts of my original idea. We also spoke about looking into one part of steel, so for that I want to explore steel structures. Potentially creating a series of posters alongside a concertina to promote and celebrate the steel industry. For this project I now need to research into past campaigns and designs from museums and look at what makes them successful.

Kelham Island Museum, Sheffield 

Established in 2021, the charity cares for the city’s collections of art, archaeology, social and industrial history, and natural science, alongside the Guild of St George’s John Ruskin collection and is home to the Ken Hawley Collection Trust’s Hawley Tool Collection.

We work with our communities to tell remarkable stories of Sheffield and its people, and celebrate its reputation for excellence in craft, making and innovation. Together with local, regional and national partners, we showcase home-grown creative talent and bring outstanding cultural experiences to the city.

Magna Science Adventure Centre, 

set in the former Templeborough steelworks in South Yorkshire. It is a vast building, a third of a mile long and 150 feet high. Four pavilions house over 100 hands-on exhibits themed on Air, Earth, Fire and Water, the ‘elements’ needed for making steel, where you can discover science, technology and the region’s industrial heritage. The spectacular Big Melt Show re-creates the story of the steelworks.

- Art Exhibitions

Although these are different subjects to mine I still find it relevant to understand how it drew the audience how It uses a narrative that is engaging and also i can use them as inspiration in how my idea could look.

Lokame Tharavadu

The core idea of this exhibition, Lokame Tharavadu or 'the world is one family', is drawn from the verses of a Malayalam poem written by Vallathol Narayana Menon, which appeals to the universal spirit of humanity. Departments of Tourism and Culture and Alappuzha Heritage Project. The art exhibition is hosted at five venues in Alappuzha.

Rosângela Rennó: Small Ecology of the Image

The Brazilian artist Rosângela Rennó has been obsessively studying images and their relationship to truth and dominant narratives for over 35 years. comprises 130 photography and video based works. From spectral, family-album portraits of soldiers in uniform that Rennó obscures with red tint, to granular images of street protesters creating a new view on history.

Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty

Alexander McQueen's dashing creativity was expressed through the technical artistry of his designs and the dramatic intensity of his fashion shows. Drawing on avant-garde installation and performance art, these were also emphatically autobiographical. McQueen fearlessly challenged the conventions of fashion.

Against The Odds

Designed by C&G Partners,this thoughtful project encouraged visitors to learn about the lives of refugees and rescuers through various media. The exhibition has won numerous awards. 

- Focusing on Histroic Exhibitions

After exploring a few successful exhibits and how they capture the audiance and communicate their theme and narrative, I thought it was now important to look at Historic Exhibitions as I want to explore the historic and famous structures of steel. So this is now more relevant to my project and helps me to understanding how to better create a new visual representation of history.

Back from the Dead: Demystifying Antibiotics

The exhibition includes work of bioartist Anna Dumitriu, who creates artwork through the direct sure of bacteria and has engaged internationally with issues of microbial resistance. The Museum's Director Dr Silke Ackermann comments that "Back from the Dead brings together past and future science with contemporary medical challenges in a novel way, revealing an extraordinary Oxford story and the human face of research in dramatic times".

Precious and Rare: Islamic Metalwork from The Courtauld

Discover how each precious and rare object is a 'cultural conversation', with its own unique story which always starts and ends in a different place. And those cultural conversations continue today, with objects and stories from the Multaka Oxford volunteers and the local community — including an interactive digital programme where you can design your own Islamic-inspired patterns.

Atmospheres

An exhibition by the Museum of the History of Science in collaboration with Atmospheric, Oceanic and Planetary Physics and the School of Geography and the Environment at the University of Oxford.

Anvilled Stars 

Matthew Galpin's meteor mirrors are hiding amongst objects in the Museum's Top Gallery. This temporary exhibition ran from 20 November 2010 to 6 February 2011.

Hey mod, have you ever been to Sheffield? Do you recommend any cool place to visit there? Or arctic related?

Yes, I’ve been before. I’m an architecture nerd so I went to Park Hill and just stared at it. 😂 Victoria Quays and Kelham Island is great to check out as well. If you wanna get your vintage shopping on (like Alex) you need to go to Division Street. Steam Yard has great coffee and cake. Not sure if the AM elephant is still at the Winter Garden. You should probably try out Matt’s new pub too. 😄

TRIP TO KELHAM ISLAND- 04/03/23

In order to gain a better understanding around Sheffield's steel and cutlery industry, I went to Kelham Island Museum. Going to the museum it gave me a more visual understanding of the history and going to my museum with my dad, who worked in the steelworks, was helpful.
