Week 1 | Personal Development Plan

The overarching theme I’ve decided to base my project on is Organic/ Synthetic. I am very passionate about food and would therefor like to incorporate it into my concept. My recent travels around south east Asia gave me an insight of new food to try, I really loved the open market stalls with stacked up groceries and spices. I’d like to explore macro shots of fruit and vegetables and extract details of them into my drawing. I would like to focus on vibrant colours and bold shapes and lines. I hope to push my skills in printing and laser cutting, and so could potentially combine these medias. Over these next two weeks I will really focus on producing a mass of drawings and visual research that will help me develop into final samples. I see my practice moving towards the installation/ art gallery context as I like to work 3 dimensionally.

After my first tutorial with mark, he gave positive feedback about my ideas within my PDP.
Given that I live just by the curry mile, I am able to easily purchase some exotic fruits to draw from straight away. Throughout my drawing I need to really explore and experiment with shape, scale and colour.
