Since entering my final year I have been reflecting on the artist I have become. Throughout my three years at university I have learnt I don't want people to ask questions such as
- "why ?"
- " what is it?"
- " what does it represent?" I want everyday people and artists to look at my work and appreciate the art produced.
I believe society today has forced people to always follow guidelines set within Art, the reason why we do this is for the reason of getting the best grade we can possibly achieve. However it took me till my final year to realise yes thats all good and well but how have I push my abilities as an artist. what I mean by this is to not to try and please others but to please yourself.
I create works that reflect on organic structures, I consider my work more as a process in everyday life for instance I feel I can only paint when I get day to day jobs out the way like a to do list, only then I feel I can get creating. I find art very relaxing and for me to produce work I feel I have to work alone where you could say my mind doesn't think, which some find hard to do imagine telling someone not to think? but I suppose some might say it introduces performance side too.
