Just an idea…

I was thinking of possible ideas for our end product - just as an initial idea - take a look at the images at the following links:

Image 1
Image 2

Also – other images and examples are available on the artist’s main site:
http://www.grafikdust.com/ - found them in an old issue of Computer Arts

- They’re collage style pieces that incorporate lots of different images and
effects to present a theme – Could we maybe do a similar thing by each collecting things around Farnham that have made a distinct impression on us? i.e. taking photos, collecting leaflets, making sketches, anything that could be part of the collage…and then create an image in a similar style with all the things that we have collected by importing/scanning/painting/drawing etc?

The other thing I thought we could include with this idea is to each create a small self portrait (maybe a headshot) which would go into the collage? – I thought this would be good as we all have different backgrounds and skills which could be made evident within our individual pictures.

Let me know what you think!

Ultimately it would be good to do something which allows us all to make a contribution as we all work with different materials and forms….so any ideas…!

Yeah i agree Joe, sounds like a good idea where we can all put something forward... and then actually have something to talk about in the presentation!
