ART280 - P3 - Visualisation

Visualisation

Due to the Government's managing of the pandemic, it is currently unknown as to when we can all return to normal. Being told to 'retrain', paired with the consistent U-Turns, has taken a toll on artists. So, with the future uncertain but hopefully positive, I will have to carefully consider how to approach planning my live exhibition. I have a few ideas on how to safely yet accurately convey my messages to an audience.

Website - Online Exhibition

I could present my work online through a website hosting service, as this allows for a vast array of possibilities without the risk of a venue cancelling at the last minute, which could disrupt my creative journey. I could use the website as a makeshift installation, as I could add music, videos, any image, and format it to suit my project's themes

Exhibition - Shaun Gallery Space

My goal for the project is to bring attention to the Northeast's influence on extreme metal, and how overlooked the region has become. So, if I were to incorporate this idea into an exhibition, I would make a large central artwork of a mock album cover, paired alongside mock music promotional materials. This will combine core illustration concepts with the freedom and emotion that contemporary art brings.

The promotional materials could be designed and then printed in large numbers, which I could use for two additional artworks to either side of the large mock album cover painting. This however would have to be created at the University site, then transported to the project space.

Video - Mixed Media

A video could be premiered, which itself would be an artwork due to audio and visual components paired alongside creative editing. This short video could showcase some of the work I have made in an experimental way, where a soundtrack could be made specially for the video, much like what many artists use in installation work.

Also, depending on audio and imagery I use and how I conduct the editing, this is potentially a very successful way of conveying my overall ideas. I believe that atmosphere is key to impacting an audience, and with black metal itself being brazen yet dreamlike in a way, this pairing could really benefit my artistic practice.
