Frances Disley



       
     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.

Ana Teresa Barboza

Ana Teresa Barboza´s characteristic use of crafts such as patchwork, knitting or embroidery combined with other media on her artistic work, bestow a poetic quality to depictions of plants and their growth – which defy our serial and industrialized times. Since she graduated from the Art Faculty of the Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú , Barboza´s use of manual crafts became the means to convey a meditative and powerful observation with the environment and her relationship with reality. Her laborious use of traditionally feminine handicraft has become her trademark, where her interest was centered initially on depictions of herself and the relationship with her body and in Animales Familiares  on the liaison of herself and her relation with others by the use of animal metaphors. Through photographs the artist recently has registered spaces she inhabited for long periods of time. With this technique, her experiences were depicted in an image; printed on paper as foot...

3D: ready made

3D art has height, width and depth and is mainly associated with ceramics, sculpture and anything that can be held. For this project we was asked to get in to pairs and find out each others likes and dislikes, a bit like a speed dating session but we had to make a list about it. I wasn't in for this little exercise so I asked my step dad so that I could get on with the work. After doing that little exercise we had to pick something to create of the list so I picked 2 things which were sports and Vespa's, so I decided to make little Vespa's out of news paper that was all about sports. I kind of struggles with this project because I wasn't in to hear exactly what to do but I feel like it went alright in the end, I quiet like the little series I did because they wasn't perfect but it kind of shows what I wanted it to show.    

Izziyana Suhaimi

Singapore-based artist Izziyana Suhaimi introduces embroidered accents to her carefully rendered pencil and watercolor illustrations. Patterns of flowers unfold much like a tapestry across the paper canvas creating pieces she refers to as “evidence of the hand and of time.” For her series The Looms in Our Bones Suhaimi focuses mostly on fashion acessories where scarves, hats, and other clothing is depicted in thread, while she also uses the same techniques for more abstract shapes and designs . From her artist statement: " Embroidery for me is a quiet and still act, where each stitch represents a moment passed. The building of stitches then becomes a re presentation of time passing and the final work is like a physical manifestation of time – a time object. Each stitch is also a recording of the maker’s thoughts and emotions. I enjoy the duality of embroidery, in its movements of stabbing, cutting, covering, building, repairing, taking apart. Every stitch made see...
