Through re-using found and donated print and painted paper offcuts, as well as textiles and acetate, I have started to create compositions based on the imagery I have found from other's work within the print room.
POSITIVES:
- Small scale ensures I can quickly explore the imagery in the way I want to, as well as having an abundance of ephemera to use
- I have found myself focusing on particular shapes already, such as the branch of leaves and the three leaf shaped flower, which I think highlights the only real impact I have on the compositions, which is my personal taste
- The reflection of colours from paper and print I have received ensures that I am not influencing the outcomes by mixing my own palettes
NEGATIVES:
- I may be over-relying on certain colours, so I need to ensure I use more of the papers I have collected
- I may be over-relying on certain colours, so I need to ensure I use more of the papers I have collected
- I need to expand on media, as I want this project to focus on shape and not just collage
WHAT NEXT:
- Try other media
- Continue to trial different juxtapositions of media and imagery to create new, innovative outcomes from recycled materials
