Drawing project Fine Art Course year 1, Sat 31/5 and 5/6.Tutors Tony Hull/ Chris Hough
RationaleTransformation
In year 2 of the fine art course you will be asked to a
personal project and we aim to fully support you in working in your chosen
media. One of the most important
elements in developing a project is the ability to take an idea, subject or
motif through different stages and through the process of transformation, open
up new insights and possibilities for both yourself as artist researcher and
for your audience in terms of how you capture their imagination and share your
thought process.
This is the first of two drawing projects led by Tony this
term, which aim to help you use drawing as a way of examining how you respond
to a given subject and how through developed strategies in drawing, you can
open up new perspectives on everyday experience.
Areas we will cover include:
Sensory interpretation.
Mark, pace and manipulating the image surface.
Transformation of scale and perspective.
You do not need to come with anything prepared , there will
be a short presentation at 10.00AM and be prepared to follow the fast moving
intuitive work you have done in 3d with Amanda .
Supporting Materials
The presentation consisted of work visualisation diagrams,
collected by American Author Edward Tufte. Probably one of the best living
authors on how people make abstract concepts visual.
Look him up also on you tube. [Lecture titled "Pen and Parchment: Drawing in the Middle Ages"] - Ed

We looked at an Eva Hess drawing and Blackboard drawings by Joseph Beuys
We discussed briefly, the role of drawing as a visualisation
tool in archaeology
This is the best book and I can show it to anyone
interested.
And finally the drawings of Agnes Martin for her work using pressure and touch as an intrinsic part of her working process.
