Degree show...

glittery_cath · 15th May 2005, 03:58 PM

Not sure if this is in the right section, but anyways.

Will any of you be going this year? I hope so. I am offering bribary in the form of free booze and cakes on the opening night, Friday the 20th of May, 6.30 - 9,30pm, room 508 (Fine art). I'm sure none of you really care what my work looks like and are just interested in the wine and cakes, but you know, I can post some examples if you're fussed

Ok, erm, I'll try not to sound too arsey

My work is generally concerned with aspects of identity, for example, gender, sexuality, how memory and childhood effects your life, relationships, forms of expressing your individuality such as music and clothes, that kind of thing. So when I do a painting I try and collect images that I feel express who I am at that point in time. The colours I use and the brushstrokes are expressive too and I try to make them create a mood that enhances the imagery I use. So basically every image I use has a specific meaning to me. I like to think of it as a jigsaw so the viewer can tell something about who I am by piecing it all together. I also hope people can appropriate their own meanings to the images. It's kind of symbolism in a way I guess. I hope that makes some sense :S
