Tom Friedman – 1000 hours of staring

I see this as a really positive experience. The amount of ideas happening in his head would be incredible.

This is what I presented for my crit. I’ve decided it’s about what i’ve done with the table and it’s location in the studio.

This work has been all based around my space at college. I have tried to start at a point zero as best as I could. Deciding to use my table as the starting point. It was to be the object of art where it normally is used to produce art at. Only using the objects in my space (my table and chair) has been important to me. It’s been about using what is availble, trying to find interest in it and see how far I could take it.

 

I got told something very useful when you are stuck. There are artist’s who get stuck and bang their head’s against the wall, then there are artist’s who get stuck, bang their head against the wall and film it.

Experiements

Drawing of my dirt pile

I was thinking today it’s quite strange to draw. It could be quite egotistical? The reason why I drew today was for fun and to get better at it. But then why get better at drawing, to try and show off? This drawing didn’t mean anything it’s just a study of some dirt. Is art pretty much just for show offs?. It is for a viewer most of the time and shown off in galleries.
