Light waves festival DO THIS

I decided i wanted to go to this light waves festival that was at the salford quays all i knew was it was a light show and would be better seen in the darker hours. As we turn up the first thing we saw was these what looked like paper boats with lights on in the water and they were changing light. We later found out you could go onto the website and change them yourself which i thought was amazing! and we stood for awhile longer. This one was the best.

 The image below is of a peice where wire was wraped around 2 posts and you could strum them and the viberations from the wire created sounds as there where mini microphones attached to individual wire at one end.

Pecha Kucha

This is my Pecha Kucha for my new project, hopefully it will help me with some ideas..

 This image is of my previous project. Its to remind me i like fabric and plaster and that they can work well together.

This is an image of a doodle during one of my lectures as i was thinking about why i like to do art and it made me think of previous work and reasons.

This is an image  from me at hamlees with a balloon snowman that the guy made for me as i was on my own. Just fun and made me laugh

These 2 images are from a museum visit and was an exhibition which i liked as you could interact with the artwork! This what i like to see in museums it makes me want to know more!

 I liked this one because the art work looked fun and interesting then disgusting when i found out it was human hair and not wool.

 This image i chose because of the scale and because i just wanted to try get into or through most of these objects or do something with them. but its a museum so i cant!

 This was an image from the white cube and this artist used led and much more in his work but with this i loved the use of the spiral stair case to exhibit the work it just worked so well.

 These 2 images one above and the one below are similar well im my mind the one above is my favorite piece from my London trip and reminded me of these pebble cushions/bean bags/pillows.

This last one is a little random but with one of the previous images being of a simular material to tights i thought why not and i needed colour... plus i do normally work with cheaper materials 

Heres some more images from the london trip 

london Visit

Day 1
Welcome collection gallery
Love the stair case as i walked into the gallery
The exhibition on the ground floor was called Bedlam, and was about how the mental asylums had risen and fallen and how they had changed how we think of medial treatment today. Looking in the 1st room i remember thinking of how i cant wait to do the metal work induction at uni because on the large table in front of me it had metal sculptures of many objects and i liked the thought that they were simple to make and looked brilliant.

There was an exhibition that was about to be opened a couple days after which was called 'Making Nature' and with the current idea of collaborating with 2 other student on a nature costume project it would be ideal so i planed on visiting again when it opened.

Day 2
Tate Modern
I love walking into this gallery ! down the ramp into the unknown, the unknown being an artwork that normally fills the room. This unknown was loud noises and lights that echoed around this space but i didn't know what it was till i had look around the whole gallery.
There where 3 things that caught my eye in this gallery and they were the one with the circle light what going around the room and changes colour as the circular object spins.

The room that caught my eye as i passed bye it as it had large oblong shape objects on the floor. My first instinct was to touch these and to find out what they were made of, however they have a line surrounding them which meant i was not allowed to cross or even touch the artwork (what is the point in that!) Then i started to look and even though i could not touch it i enjoyed looking at it as it felt playful but that feeling needed for filling. At that point my friend said to me that galleries should have samples of the art work next to the piece so that people could touch the sample and not destroy the work.

Also there is a piece by Sheela Gowda and is human hair (i didn't believe it until i read the title) and car bumpers. At first it looked so cool, i wanted to touch and play around with it. However after finding out it was human hair and not rope i did not want to touch this piece.

White Cube
I LOVED this gallery as it was all 1 artists work. You where greeted by a guard giving you a sheet saying the rules of what you cannot touch any why.. LED. You then walk down a corridor full of beds not ordinary ones as the mattresses, quilts and pillows are made from led and it was tempting to touch one to see it if was. From the corridor lead 6 different rooms each with something different and fascination.

Day 3
WhiteChapel
After many attempts to try to get into this gallery i finally found the right opening and wasn't actually that amazed by what i saw. Ok this gallery was for film and i have done some kind of film in previous works however it was mainly music videos. one piece that did get me was

Have some fun. Site seeing..
I went into HAMLEES as as a kid i remember loving it. Games fun being a child. That's what i need for my project. It wasn't as fun as i thought but the staff made it fun so why can i not do that in my project.....
