Tutorial with Jamie Mills: India Brief

This tutorial was very helpful for me concerning my India Brief! I have been in complete clarity about the content of my work - My trip to India - the people, colours, scenery and patterns. The stories found in my visit there - such as the election, Diwali etc. But I have been totally confused about my end result/product. This tutorial was crucial in giving me direction and great examples of where I can take this project and aim for as final work.

Notes

  • Lino Prints- Landscapes, environments. - reduction cuts (layers of colour - print then cut into the lino more and print again).

  • Focus on colour!
  • Narrative - Journey. Journalistic approach - investigate documentary photography. 
  • A collection of drawings/prints that tell the experience of my trip. 
  • Lino prints, photos, drawings… screen printing. 
  • People places and events. 
  • Go back to original sketchbooks and work from that. 
  • Scale up (large scale) tests of flora - palm trees. (Bring in portfolio to carry large paper etc - perhaps thurs/fri/sat?) ***
  • Installations - large scale - conveying how it felt like to be emerged in India/palm trees etc.
  • GIFs/ stop frame animations -these could be playing as part of the installation.
  • I need to scan in current India sketchbooks/work on work etc. 
Artists with similar work - to keep in mind!! 
  • William Eggleston
  • William Grill
  • Natives Journal - Nicolas Burrows
  • Lizzy Stewart
After speaking with Jamie Mills my end point and direction of my India Brief is to produce…

A collection of artefacts/objects that tell a story. (About my time in India)

*** Scale up images like these from my sketchbook - big paint brush strokes/giant lino cuts etc.
