project proposals

The assessment option I have chosen for Professional Practice is to write a proposal to have our work exhibited. We must find a gallery (or festival, platform of any kind) and follow their submission guidelines. This is the beginning of my search.

jonathon jones

A couple of weeks ago in Professional Practice we watched the Jonathon Jones Art in Reverse DVD. I really enjoyed it... and the relationship between him and his mum was a nice little surprise.

The thing that stuck with me more than anything was his embossed paper Poles; it reminded me how much I like paper, minimalism, clean, sharp perfectionism, and blank white. And I loved it when he was talking about the supermarket in Tamworth and the contrast between the light inside and out, and how he must be crazy to even think about things like that when he's at the supermarket. And that's why I love artists and the people in my course... we're all crazy and think like that. It's reassuring, and wonderful :)

More from Linden.

His work is currently showing until the 11th May as part of ACCA's NEW08.
