abstract expressionism

 Abstract expressionism is the term applied to new forms of abstract art developed by American painters such as Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko and Willem de Kooning in the 1940s and 1950s, often characterised by gestural brush-strokes or mark making, And the impression of spontaneity.

Mark Rothko
art was profoundly imbued with emotional content that he articulated through a range of styles that evolved from figurative to abstract.
His early figurative work included landscapes, still lifes, figure studies, and portraits. Demonstrating an ability to blend Expressionism and surrealism. His search for new forms of expression led to his collar field paintings, which employed shimmering colour to convey a sense of spirituality.

wired portrait

I have come up with an idea whilst researching into trapped feelings in the art form.
I want to create a wired portrait. First i will create a modroc cast of my full head and shoulders. this will make the strength that i need before i add my wire. (i want the wire to be fully fitted around the figure). After dried i will wrap chicken wire neatly around the head, this will be so i can intertwine the next layer of wire which will just be strips. I may add other objects and colour within the model depending on how my further development takes me.

This is to represent feeling trapped or caged within your own head. Not been able to think clearly. Or do what others want you to. Or this could represent not been able to express your own thoughts and feeling by being occupied by someone else so this is the camaflage you've created yourself. I think i want it to show blocked potential so having all these wonderful thoughts and ideas in your head but not been given the chance to show your hidden talents this could be because others are getting in the way or your not confident enough to try anything out. This could be linked to illness, loneliness, or self confidence

these are just a few different views of what everyone else could feel or try to understand from looking at my art piece.

alternative miss world reflective practice

I want to go back to the experiment in the box. Put myself in a dark space, to be left with my own thoughts, feelings and opinions. everyone has a different view of perspective. And i want to reflect this in my work. make sense out of nonsense, have a bit of fun, something unusual but simple with a lot of depth. this is how it relates to the box something so simple but with a lot of hidden meanings.
