Exhibition meeting

We have decided we would like to aim to make 8+ pieces so that we can decide which ones have worked best and which reflect our ideas best. We have estimated that we will need 5 large scale pieces to fill the space, and possibly one or two smaller pieces of work. We are looking into different ways that we can physically distort the body as a way to represent the way we are distorted by society, and also the notion of the sublime. 


These are just some quick notes I have made from our meeting:
Print image big 

A3 Perspex? Bigger? 

Cut image down the middle paint one half each

Aim to make 8 - choose the best 5

Experiment with painting onto Perspex and peel off

Painting coming out of frame, falling to floor

Layers of hard plastic, see each individual layer

Printing onto Perspex 

IDEAS:

print an image A0 £11? - paint onto

Photocopy - both create images

Body wrapped in cling film - I'll do images

Painting in half

Layers of Perspex - movement images


Each paint onto perspex from the movement images and then once dry place on top of each other to create this layered and kind of abstract effect.

Painting coming out of frame - Francis Bacon style. Have prepared a square black primed canvas



Cut one image down the middle and paint half each. We have decided this would be a interesting idea if after we have chosen which image to work from to not talk about the piece any more. So we will hopefully create quite different responses. We will choose the image, split it in half and take our half away. We will then have to choose a size of board or canvas and colours and background colours and medium etc. then once we have both finished we will bring them together and they will be displayed side by side. Resembles the idea of the childhood game consequences where you take it in turns to draw part of a body then roll it over for the next person. You end up creating some sort of abnormal moster-like body. Like the Exquisite Corpse by the Chapman Brothers.


In particular one of the movement images stood out to both of us as a really intriguing and impacting piece, so we have decided to print it at size A0 and paint
