I’ve had quite a difficult semester
after the passing of a relative, hence my quietness. Despite this, things are
going smoothly with my art- I got a Merit in my first essay at Masters level.
My work is currently focused on colour and how trichromats (people with ‘normal’
colour vision) may see colour differently. I’ve read some very interesting
books on colour, including books by scientist Oliver Sacks as part of my
research. I’ve visited more exhibitions and
galleries, including the Robert Rauschenberg exhibition at the Tate, the William Kentridge exhibition in Whitechapel
Gallery, etc. I have also exhibited my own work (3 large drawings) at the Winchester
School of Art. I submitted my second essay earlier this week, which asks
‘Can the colour red look different to trichromats with an illness or
disability?’- Within this I aim to demonstrate how we don’t all see colour in
exactly the same way, which I think is important to consider when creating or
viewing artwork. My practical artwork for this semester is due this Friday the
20th.
