Major Project Crit.

Feedback from my crit was as follows:

  • Good research into theme
  • Great graduation of development from experimentation
  • Maybe experiment more with different materials
  • Attention to detail in terms of connecting media to theme and research.
  • Use of chicken skin was effective,imotive,impactful,conceptual.
  • Think about surface more
  • The more sucessful work moves away from focusing on Hang Mioku
  • Embarace the horror!
  • Repulsion-chicken skin
  • Using the magnifying glass speaks volumes
  • The more abstract work works better
  • Need to think about health and safety when using the chicken skin for the end of the project
  • Performative work good use of self
  • Very thorough and engaged!
  • Extensive experimentation!

It was pointed out by tutors and peers that my work with the chicken and my performative work was my strongest work by far.I had allready come to this conclusion myself but welcomed the feedback as it made my thoughts feel more certified.

Sadly due to the Cornavirus there is no more chicken in the shops and even if there was I wouldn’t want to buy it merely for artisitic purposes when familes are struggerling. It’s ashame because i wanted to refine my idea more with video and photo’s but having this happen has taught me to problem solve and look resourcefully at what i do have.

I think i will experiment with the images of the chicken i allready have and mix these with performative pieces by using a free version of photo shop called ‘Gimp’.As due to the college being closed we no long have photoshop as a resource.There is allways the chance that things may not work out the way i want them to but it is all part of the process and if this happens i have many other images to choose from for my final piece.
