I really didn't know what to do for this project. So when I came into the studio, I looked back at the posters to see if they would give me some guidance. I went to the ethics poster and saw how people linked between ethics and illustration:
>Phallic objects
>Racism
>Eco friendly
>Not offending people
>Profit - equal pay
>Freedom of speech
>production ethics
>moral stories
>social commitment
>subliminal messages
this really hasn't helped me at all.
So I went and spoke to Naomi because she's always full of ideas and makes you feel a bit better about your life. She kept saying how I need to think about how illustration can be used functionally and that's the most important part of the module. I think I'm really over thinking this whole ethics thing. So I thought the best way to get ideas flowing is just to draw. Literally anything that comes to my head, then (hopefully) it'll all come together.
By just mindlessly sketching, I realised that my go to is always animals and my go to material is gouache. This made me realise that maybe this is what I should focus on? If i do animals (obviously put more context to it) and then paint? or I could experiment with my ceramics??
I then thought that animals and ethics could link quite well!? I could do current affairs that I'm interested in/care about and use animals to tell the story like fabels!
I think I'm finally onto something
I don't have my application just yet but I think the first thing I need to do is start researching to create a solid theme.
