Today a small group of us met up with the PASS leaders from second year to have a look at our studios and discuss our work. It was refreshing to be able to look at other studios and hear people talk about work that I haven’t encountered before after being surrounded by the same work in my studio for such a long period of time.
When looking at my work we discussed possible external sources that I could take influence from to give some context to my work, such as Robert Smithson and William Anatasi. I was also given the idea of using my small scale prints to cover a large space, so that a viewer becomes fully immersed in the small details that I have created in the frame of the print. The topic of the square became a recurring theme as we looked at peoples’ work, and it became clear how many forms that we are used to today; grids, frames, windows all conform to this shape when it is not a naturally occurring shape itself, yet the relationship between squares and nature were being looked at again and again throughout the studios. This session was really useful as a helpful starting point to really get the ball rolling again after the lull where assessments were being marked.
