In order to explore my essay on who owns the authorship of art in a practical sense, I will look initially at re-appropriating peers work, primarily through collecting and re-using print off-cuts and handmade texture which are no longer needed. I will use mainly collage to explore the colour and shapes used by others to challenge who the actual author of a body of work is through looking at existing shapes and colours. This will help to develop my discussion on who is the creator and who is the author of an image, and to what extent this can be shared. I will be using a lot of mixed materials, as it will be what I can source and re use within my work, but I imagine I will be heavily influenced by what traditional print items I can collect, before perhaps turing these into my own 'authored' prints. I will be heavily influenced by Barthes, who is a firm believer in shared authorship, and that work has a life beyond the artist who creates it. I will also explore more the theories of both Storey and Foucalt who have conflicting views that art must be reflective of the ideologies of its audience, and that the ideologies of the audience are constructed by the artist.
