Task 2: Week 3

Research Drawing
Produce drawings which combine two or more expressive strategies. Given the research images posted during week two these might include:
-The use of symbolism in terms of objects and processes
-Indexical drawing processes, (where there is a particular relationship between the object described and the mark used to make it's image)
-Text and written material
-The development of a narrative or character or situation responsible for the actions or outcomes exhibited in the drawings
-Different materials used in relation to each other.

Themes developed in the reference material so far include:
Images that makes use of symbol or employ objects that stand as for signs in an associative sense. Some posts indicate an intent to use material that carries a strong prior significance,recycling its past effect or history.
An engagement with the social representation of nature, images suggest an interest in the subjective organisation of worlds. The recording and inventive process in many of these images suggests the use of visual tools which mark the view. Because of this many of the images have an ideological function. they stand for a way of looking at the world, and indicate the distance between worlds.

Outcomes should involve new working processes that articulate an aspect or aspects of the ideas your working with. Each drawing should do aim to move your ideas along. Three drawings should be completed to a point where they can be discussed.

Please also bring:

The plates you are working on, and be prepared to discuss the way the research drawing might translate into printmaking.
A book or hard copy of an article that you have found interesting during the week.
