Rough Module Outline
The Exhibition module is all about having 3 pieces of our work displayed in an art gallery setting. We have been put into groups to start working out ideas for the theme of the exhibition. As we were shown in class how there is a fine art to designing the area around the art and not just the art itself.
We started brainstorming ideas in the group, thinking about how we could display the work in the environment. If anyone had seen any exhibitions and how they had presented work, what ideas could be achievable and even what ideas would be fantastic but could be restricted due to time and money.
There is also an element of PDP to the module, learing how to create business cards and set up a CV with an online portfolio. This module is very exciting as it means doing something out of our comfort zones, working with group members and essentially the whole class. We will need to put nerves behind us, having to speak to the general public that enter the exhibition and explain our work.
Hi Daniel,
ReplyDeleteReally happy to see you and your team were so excited with the task this week. I'm sure you will remember your experience as a VISITOR whenever you start designing and putting up your own show. So, my comments today are just these: If you already have a website and a business card, be sure to unify the ideas of both of them with your CV. Based in the information that I read and saw, I think you have 3 different concepts and graphics for each of them. Choose the one you like the most and that you think represents you and your work the best and apply it to the website, business card and CV. At the end of the day, any potential client that has interest in your work will see the three of them. One of the basics of design is UNITY. Don't forget about that.
Second thought: I think that fortunately you went to an exhibition that was very related to the ideas you have: making the visitor interact with the show. Please don't forget to think clearly what made YOU as a VISITOR so excited to interact with the pieces exhibited. Question yourself: What were the elements that invited you to be part of the exhibition and apply them to your own concepts.
Well done Daniel, keep being so enthusiastic as always!! See you in class.
