Bethany Hill: Art And Inspirations

        For this project, I decided to carry on with the "fail" project and looked more carefully in to the word fail. I carried on with the technique I was using with in the fail project looking at patchy memories and tangled thoughts and emotion. I really enjoyed this project because I worked in the way I like to work with all materials spread out around me and producing work at quiet a fast pace.   For my final piece for this project, I decided to work with thread, emulation, acrylic and charcoal on a big piece of calico. I took this piece out of my A6 sketchbook and increased the size by 20x roughly. I didn't really think about time when I was doing this piece because I was just having fun with it and getting carried away until it came to making the thread thicker which ended up taking about 5 rolls of black thread because I wanted to make the piece similar to the piece in my book.   The task after that was to find a place to display th

David Armes is an artist working with letterpress printing, language and geography. His work is frequently site- specific and considers how sense of place can be represented. He uses hand-set type with more expressive approaches. He likes to work with paper folding, surface pattern prints, automatic prints and pressure printing. Armes designed all of his own bands album covers using letterpress printing which he experiments using different materials as a surface. I really like Armes work because most of Armes work is landscape-based, he transforms a photo of a landscape in to a landscape of words and a varity of colours and shapes.

4D art contains a wide variety of art practices, but generally is divided in to 3 genres which are, Installation art, issue of site and audience interaction, hoe context alters meaning and impact. But overall 4D practice is very much time based. For this project I looked at the artist Tehching Hsich. From 1980 to 1981, Hsich spent the entire year punching time  cards every hour for a project called "one year performance 1980-1981". Each time he punched his time card, he would have his photo taken, then every single photo that was taken from the whole year was put together to make a time-lapse that lasted around 6 minutes long. So after looking at Hsich performance work, I then bega n to explore with time by making my own little time-lapse. The first time-lapse I did was set to take a picture every 2 minutes for 30 minutes, I really liked how good it looked when all the images was put together. As soon as I got back to my flat, I put my camera on charge

Danielle Freakley is an Australian born artist she works in performance, sculpture, reasonable dancing , sound text or what ever other materials work to digest the idea at the time. Her performance change daily social communication and relationships exposing historical and lurking private projections and subtext. This usually happens in collaboration with audience who accidentally perform with her.  I really like her performance art because its completely different. The piece I liked the most was the "don't quote me on that" she spent 3 years just quoting everything she was saying, its just the most weird thing to do but it must of took a lot of practice to remember each and ever quote and also remember when and where that quote was made from.   

So for this project I was given 3 worlds to work with which was That, Day and You. we had to produce 6 images, 3 positive and 3 negative. For the positive images I did "Friday" for day because Friday is known as a happy day because that's when the weekend starts , "identity" for that because when you say that your identifying an object and "a mirror" for you because it reflects yourself. For the negative I did "Monday" for day because its the day after the weekend quiet a drab day, "point" for that because you point at something when you  talk about it but people always say its rube to point which if why I did it as a negative and "broken mirror" for you to represent all the negativity people think about themselves.    

Maria Kulikovska was born in 1988 in Kerch, Ukraine ,now occupied territory by the state of Russia 2014. And this text presents itself within some of Marias sculptural work and on going projects .Throughout her artistic life, she has moved to a much more spontaneous and contemporary analytical expression. Marias work is basically her own body, as a material for expressing a common reality about the body, its present form, transformation and decay, or putting her self in the situation of a voice acting out theatrically explosive performance "Untitled" to sculpture parks of heavy artwork I Like the way Maria looks at decay within the human structure because sometimes her sculptures have been shot at or axed at and other times they have just been left to decay in a natural way like with the weather.

I feel like this little day project went really well because I produced quiet a lot of work from it and it allowed me to be experimental using different materials and medias, it also allowed me to challenged myself as an artist to work at a set paste.   These 4 images are off the experiments I did using charcoal, white emulsion, black acrylic paint, fine liner, masking tape and thread on cartilage paper. If I had more time on this project I would like to look into artwork that its similar to what I have done and develop my ideas further like looking at the scale that I'm working with because I stuck to A4 and A3 for these pieces  

             Frances Disley is based in Liverpool at The Royal Standard and is currently a Liverpool Biennial Associate artist. Disley seeks to expose the thought processes of when the artist is wrestling with form and colour. She uses her own body timate the crude painting object and surface that she creates. The sounds pieces that she creates are set to create an atmosphere and gives the piece a certain mood. The sounds she uses are mainly sounds that annoy people, that can lead some people to anxiety. I liked the way how her pieces contrast between colour and shape because the shapes are bold and simple and the colour it just bright so the two just compliment each other. I also like how she uses her body within her piece like when she uses yoga because it kind of makes the watcher feel like its a personal piece of art.
