had a few extremely uninspired weeks where i found it really really difficult to make work. it's very easy for me to forget what my tone of of voice is and what it is i have to say - i lost purpose and a sense of intention but it's good to have found that agin. i always seem to forget why i make work, and that i do have things to say but overviewing my practice thus far and reminding myself of what i'm about has been really helpful and definitely took the pressure off things. made a list of words i feel embody what my work is about - sort of an expansion on my six memos and started drawing from those. my aim this term is to break from my habitual approach to making - because i have such a distinct way of doing things i find myself getting bored and frustrated by it so it will be good for me to push things in terms of process and overall approach.
my practice!:
image making
story telling
intention
immediacy
energy
authenticity
sentimentality
representation
dreamy
otherwordly
nature
hand-made
lo-fi
awareness
the everyday ~ the unseen
spiritual
sequence
collage
the in between (abstract~figurative)
