This is an interesting way of referencing and journalizing images of your life and what they represent to you
By creating a dated image he is referring to his own life and history of the world and times he was living in
I could see this way of working working for me to reference important date in my life along with referencing current events in the world or past historic dates ie) 9/11 or moon landing or in fact this years covid 19 outbreak and levels
Although I find this interesting I don’t like the precise application on a plain background I would prefer an emotive application in response to the date be it; anger/ rage/ love etc or world disasters or world improvements and advances
I went back to the series of text paintings I did earlier to create a series even though I had already formed a type of series
I had a few responses to look at
I also looked at
My first thought is a video piece or performance as I still feel the emphasis should be on the word bleed infact bleeding into the other text
I wanted to set up the same text below but this time film the red paint bleeding down the rest of the text
I took 2 videos one spraying and the other watching the drips then I took some photographs of the finished image which I prefer to the original
I would have the video playing on a loop along with the finished piece if exhibiting
I am finding it very difficult to try to add on my video from my camera to the wordpress blog so will take advice and add the video at a later date
