Unit 2- Analysing survey results

-

 I decided to create a survey on sustainable cultural traditions in order to inform my work. This is the survey:

I then made charts to help me analyse the answers participants gave.


Considering the majority of participants were white/British, this survey really taught me the reality of my own cultures attitudes towards sustainability and it inspired me to produce some work that's inspired by this. Perhaps I could create something that shows the British public sustainable cultural traditions within their own culture, teaching them how to use them and in turn teaching myself about my own culture.

From these pie charts, I can see that the majority of white/British people:

  • Are very willing to change their lifestyle to be more sustainable.
  • Very likely to try an environmentally friendly product.
  • Have a moderately sustainable lifestyle.
  • Believe their culture moderately encourages sustainable living.
  • Extremely concerned about the environment.



I learned that the top sustainable traditions in British culture are:
  • Second hand items, including charity shop clothes
  • Recyling items and using the food bin
  • Cycling and walking places instead of driving
  • Growing own food in allotments

 I was inspired by the work of Kitty Sabatier and her technique of abstraction within mark-making. I decided to reproduce some of my favourite works of hers and learn from her creative process so as to take inspiration for my future projects. (My work is on the left and the inspiration for it is on the right)

Unit 1- Working with Clay to Explore Shape and Space

-
Image
With my quick workshop in clay, I wanted to explore the elements of shape and space. I chose to do some sketching following on from the shapes I created in my previous workshop and the artist research I had done.  I took inspiration from the 'squiggle' shape that keeps coming up in the research. I looked at the folds within Bernin's sculptures and wanted to experiment with making that on a more refined scale. My first attempt was unstructured and broke as the cat was in a plastic state. To solve this, I used a leather hard coat and cut out full circles of a larger width and layered these with slip. To develop this concept further, I would like to experiment with scale and how this can impact the appearance of shape and space.

Final outcome- FMP

-

 Details of final outcome: Outcome in-situ: Outcome in gallery setting: I feel fulfilled by the outcome I produced. It reflects the effort I put in over my FMP into research, learning new skills and also personal development. It is an artists' book called 'An Ode to the Moon' and is a testament to the enormous range of perspectives we have on the moon. For me, this project has been an enlightening journey on how the world can have so many different viewpoints on the same thing. It has been a personal journey for me and I feel this book is evidence of this. I can't wait to show this book to friends and family. I already have some orders in from people that would like one for themselves- which is ultimately the goal of my project (to share alternative perspectives through allowing ownership and personal connection to my work.)
