Hello fellow artists.
we have recently been handed our new brief called Family Matters

Family Matters, is an exhibition touring Norwich,Sheffield, Newcastle and London (Tate Britain) in October 2012. Family matters explores the changing nature of family and how it is represented in British art.

Image
Expression
Communication 

Here are some images from my first brief-Image
We looked into Rankin's Destroy project. I was so inspired by it I didnt really have any issues coming up with ideas for destroying my images
Lauren's lovely eyes that i have warped slightly.
I made this peice after looking at Mark Powells work. This piece has so much meaning to me, because it shows how I used to feel as a child when I moved around a lot. In one of Mark Powell's Projects I looked at, he took photos of people when he was on a train or bus, and then drew them onto old envelopes. I loved this and decided to create my own digital peice. 
LACE!!!!
This was my digital version of Maurizio Anzeri's work. Anzeri buys vitage/old photograohs and stitches on top of them. He covers peoples faces in stitch but he always leaves one eye un -stiched so that not all identity was lost. I absolutely loved creating this because i love to find ways of making my photos look slightly abstract or even getting more of a point across
 
Hi all, my name is Caitlin, as most of you already know if you have seen the rest of my website :).
My blog is basically my artistic life all spilled out onto a page :). I will mainly post about my photography but also the  teddies that I create and any other artwork, as well as those big artist events (exhibitions and such).
