Can images breathe?
There is an interesting central debate between mine and Amelia’s work that emulates around the idea of physical activity when mark making. However, Amelia’s practice has other concerns such as the aesthetics of her back pack, which seems to be theatrical in nature, making reference to folk law. Amelia also seems to have religion as an imperative motivator for her work, where as mine is more of an internal thought process centered around current debates about the future of man and technology. Furthermore, Amelia’s back ground is in illustration so the marks made are much more considered and figurative, where as my focus is to allow the device more autonomy, so there is a conflict of interest, a play of power between me and the device. This seminar has offered me new and defined insights in to my subject matter to consider.
