Preparations

Just in the studio doing some final preparations for the installation part for the degree show.

Facebook Event

Here is a Facebook Event that some fellow contemporaries have set up for the private opening for the Degree Show. It is a public event so anyone is able to put that they are attending:

Visual Bibliography

I have nearly completed my visual bibliography, I feel I have had some strong influences throughout this project such as, artists, books and words; they helped me tremendously with the reasoning behind my work. I'm getting the final preparations done before I am able to start setting up the exhibition next week. The sound piece 'A woman with a Story' I am really pleased with, all that's left is the final decision 'text' that will be projected into the room. It is hard to visualize what the final piece will look like - let's hope it will look as good as it does in my head!

Business Card

I have just ordered my business cards to put near my exhibition for people to take away with them if they wish, I am excited for them to arrive to see what they look like. I used the images of my work that Dave Overton took, which will also be in the catalogue. I kept them simple on the back with only relevant information.

Projection

I have decided that instead of having two sound pieces I will have one playing out loud and one projected onto the back wall, so that it is presented in a way that the viewer can still read it and it will be part of the work. I have been experimenting with different pens and sizing to insure I get it looking perfect. I am handwriting it, as this gives it a personal feel to it, like the sound piece has to it, it is also going to be projected using OHP as this makes it look as though its an old page torn out of a diary.

Layout

This is a rough layout/plan of the installation.

Sketch for Model

This was the sketch and measurments that I used to make the model of the room/gallery space for my degree show.

Model

These are images of a model I have made, to help me plan how the installation will look. It is all to scale and I will make little model furniture to put inside it. To help towards the Degree Show Exhibition.

Degree Show Progress

So far I have been concentrating on making the short stories the best possible, had a little go at some recordings which I will post on here soon.

Also I have done some preparation for the installation. I have cleaned and painted these furniture so they are now looking in pristine condition.

Update

Test sound piece has been added to the blog under the 'Sound' Tab along the top. This was just a practice and the end piece will be added soon.
