Aspart of our Manifesto brief we were challenged to explore ways of displaying our work. I had to decide whether I wanted to display my work in an extremely experimental way or whether or not I wanted to explore how I would display my work in more detail relating to how I wish to display at the end of the year. I decided that I would try to mix the two, I was experimenting making my own book.
Although I was not making any massive sculptures or pieces like other people from my group, I felt as though for me a more intimate way of working was most appropriate.
It gave me the opportunity to really understand how I want my work to be seen and the impact this has on others.
Sat on a desk in the corner of the room I began making my very personal handmade book. I used materials brought in and began exploring different ways of making my book.
I decided upon printing my images on acetate and placing white card inbetween the sheets creating a very inventive way of viewing a book. I wanted it to be different to
anything I have ever done or even seen done before.
I also decided that I would explore other artistic avenues by designing my front cover myself. Sketching out my image was probably the most challenging part for me as I wanted it to be perfect and feel natural within the piece of work.
