Film Making
Within this film I wanted to explore a sense of transience and materiality, visions of time passing and slowing down into a contemplative haze. The narrative of the film is intended to be derived from the mood which toys with light and darkness. Within the films I have looked at I am most drawn to the ability to look at simple things in extraordinary way through the use of distortion. It became important to explore movement and scale, with shadows animating natural and granular textures, writhing in a uncanny and uncomfortable yet alluring manner.

Quality of Line
Quick drawing from crystal rock plate, exploring the depth of colour and tone whilst also trying to convey the differentiation between texture. The fluid boarder of rich teal and turquoise colour that surrounds the middle layer of crystallised textures.
This drawing was a very crucial addition to my drawing work for the print block and led me to the work of Richard Weston. These gorgeous cropped sections are abstracted from the original form and hone in on the intricacies of the crystal rock formation. The various blurred colour and more scratchy drawn marks inspire me to combine drawing marks I have made with more photographic qualities together in CAD prints.
