There's no better time to start putting some down onto e-paper! (As compared to a scrap of paper I would normally lose, on here I know I won't be able to misplace it.)
At this point now, I know I'm working with two main materials, and the idea is to use them effectively and originally in unison. I selected Textiles and Metal, though was also strongly drawn to print, wood and resin & plastics.
There's nothing to stop us using more than these two materials in our project, though at my uni it is famously hard to get into a workshop where you haven't had the chance to butter the technician up, so to speak.
Inspirations/ Initial thoughts list (in no particular order or structure)
- Working with food! Kitchen design/ utensil design
- be able to bring cooking/ recipes into it
- How do people use kitchens? Appropriating spaces/ surfaces
- Relationships people have with mealtimes/ associations
- Recycling/ Sustainability!
- Bits of metal in kitchen - Can lids/ cans/ screw tops/ biscuit barrel etc.
- Bit of textile in kitchen - cloths/ paper/ oven clothes/ recipe books/ aprons
- Weaving! (using NYC sketchbook drawings)
- Spain drawings/ development
- Writing/ video work
- Make video for pieces
- RCA/ degree show pieces
- Jewellery
- Wearable kitchen utensils
- Tools, e.g. cutlery
- Textile = cute and kitch. Metal = hard and structural
- Products combining both; clothes with metal fastenings, bags
So, next steps include making a Pinterest Board of secondary research, as well as collecting and sorting my primary research (anything I've done over Summer) to make clear and presentable. (And blag that I knew what I was doing all along... #thingsyoulearnatartschool)
Watch this space!
