Overall the trip was very inspiring. I fell in love with Rachel Goodyear's work in The New Art Gallery; I have always loved the effect that watercolour can achieve and her work was a great example of the beauty of the medium.
 |
| I could do something like this with my own work, I could hang pieces and play around with the shadows they create. |
 |
| I took this photo while walking out at the end of Goodyear's 'Oracle' animation. I'd like to incorporate shadows into my work in some kind of way. |
 |
| This is a composition of small pieces done my Goodyear. the three photos below are some of the pieces that are a part of it. |
 |
| Here she has used a material to add a 3D aspect to her work. This is something I could try. |
 |
| This is part of Goodyear's 'Oracles' animation. Its made me think about how art doesn't have to be a drawing on a canvas but instead can include music and movement to evoke an emotion. |
Other than Goodyear's work the other piece that stood out to me was this:
 |
| This composition consists of some abstract shapes which act as a platform for a dancing woman that is being projected onto the shapes. Using a projector is something I really want to experiment with and so I was drawn to this piece of work. |
I have been to Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery before and so didn't look around too much and I didn't take many photos, however, I did look around the 'I Want, I Want' exhibition. The exhibition stunned me with how unique and different all of the work was. I enjoyed the concept of being able to walk into a small theatre type room to experience videos in isolation from the rest of the work and was also drawn to a piece of work that was interactive and had a game incorporated into it. I like the idea of art being interactive and so may begin to incorporate this concept into my own work.
