I feel like my research is going nowhere, the freedom feel too much and the restrictions also feel the same. I want to find a balance...I want to get away from the textures but I also want to see where I can take it...Bit stuck but no worries right?
In Natalias class we did a small exercise where we went to our location and had to make a quick work to present to the class with a material of our choice I had only found the clay to be interesting so far so I continued but I tried to make it more performative by leaving it on the bench and the act of all of it.
Maybe I could've recorded my process.
Here is what I did for Michiels assignment, I collected keywords that were pre-existing in my notebook and tried to filter out which were most interesting to me from there I tried to find content that was interesting and relevant to this selection.
I found that my words turned out quite cold and harsh, maybe this is my view of my area in the district?

Funny how they are trying to glorify solitude in a way... all the images have the same idea of making it look like a meditative and spiritual moment. Solitude can for sure be a very good thing and I guess the word makes it seem more of choice as in that you choose solitude to focus on something... yourself for example or work.
I felt that focus sitting on the bench in my area.

Pretty self-explanatory due to the kind of work I've been doing in the district. I saw this video and it was a educational thing from the late 60's which is a really attractive aesthetic for me.
Besides that it gave me a well rounded perspective of how texture is all around and how it can be applied in a artistic sense.
