My own Graphic/ Photography work .....

Nothing much to look at.........

For this piece i wanted to portray the way people feel when they look in the mirror, so all the words that you can see that are edited onto this all relate as they are un-nerving and negative words. I find that the use of the photograph of the broken smashed mirror give this piece a very edgy feel this making the view feel what the person who did it felt, the person who felt this felt unhappy in there own skin. They are not happy on how they look. This piece also makes me want to go down the route of self harm, as they could have smashed the mirror in anger but in the process of this got so angry that they turned to self harm and cut them self with the sharp edges of the broken up mirror. Overall i personally like this piece as i feel it captures the audiences eye.

Photography my own work

These photos of my own work are the work that i did in my exam, i wanted to play about with the different reflections show when the broken mirror that i smashed up, ready to be able to hang from fishing wire. The reflections where created by shining a light on to the broken mirrors to get the broken up refelection onto the plain walls.

Design ideas

I am currently working on some main design ideas, this helping me think about whatwould be good and possible to do for my final piece. throughout this proccess I have struggled a little as i have not been able to do what i think i could have, this delaying the process, but neverthe less stopping it. I have started to work round the problems. For example, i have not been able to hang my big mirror up on the back wall of the room which i have painted (metal wall) this making all my design ideas currently not work. However i will be drilling a wooden sheet onto the metal wall with special fixing to hold up and hang my mirror upon this hopfully fixing the problem!

Cornelia Parker

Her work is full of waste things, stuff that has been discarded or is undergoing a process of disposal.Parker’s method of interrogating things and the meanings that pre-exist her interaction with them. Her work demonstrates how these meanings can undergo change, transformation and translation. Her best known works, Thirty Pieces of Silver (1988–89), Cold Dark Matter: An Exploded View (1991), Mass: Colder Darker Matter (1997), Avoided Object (1995), and The Negative of Words (1996), operate in a diffuse chorus to reassess how meaning becomes attached to and validated by material; explicating how these attachments can become located, detached and reconfigured. Parker does not so much create as recreate things, taking what pre-exists and manipulating this condition of pre-existence in order to query the time we distribute to things.

Photography...

For these photography pieces, i wanted to show how different people feel when they look into a mirror.

I was heavily inspired by          as her use in photography and also how she uses signs and stops random people off the street and gets them to write down what job they would like to be and what there dream job would be. i was inspired by this as i got people around my class to write down what they feel like when the look in the mirror. once taking the photos i super emposed the photographs and edited they words into them.
