My tutorial with Julie at the end of last week (17/10/13) involved a discussion of what I am aiming to create for this project, Julie had suggested an installation, something on a wall, or in a space in the room for patients and their caregivers to look at, feel and discuss. At the time I thought this sounded like a great idea- as it really involves the use of senses that I want to respond to, however having never designed/created an installation before, I'm not sure where to start.
Last week I was working on a digital sketchbook on Illustrator, so it was very flat work. This week I decided to start working with materials- to inspire my installation design. I have always enjoyed hand knitting, and so responded to my visual research with knit:
I enjoyed working with knit again, and felt really inspired using different techniques and needles to create these samples. It also made me begin to think about colour. My next tutorial is an option tutorial with Mark Beecroft- I chose to see him because of his use and knowledge of materials, and I hope he will give me a bit of a different approach to the project to think about. I created a new moodboard for this tutorial to show my project up to date- which also helps me present my project to a group tutorial:
