Assessment Presentation #3 - And Fiend Project Antwerp

 Yesterday I had another assessment day. This time it was only for my own teachers.

Because there was such a short period of time between the previous presentation and this one (because of the holidays), I couldn't show much new work. I decided to just make a complete different presentation with a selection of my work.

Last week I went to Antwerp with three classmates to visit Fiend Projects, an art festival. I got really inspired by the presentations of the works there.

It was a really dynamic and playful exhibition. We walked around for a couple of hours and we kept discovering other works, even though the space wasn't so big.

I wanted to take this inspiration and use it for the assessment presentation, and I think it worked out, I was very happy with my presentation.

The teachers spoke out their thoughts and advises. They told me to experiment more with color and structure, make enormous installations (so big I wouldn't be able to drag them to school) and to give more depth to my work. By depth they meant choosing less shallow subjects, so that I can put more of my opinion in it and not just show what the subject is about in general.

Below are some photo's I took in Antwerp at the festival.

Also: I did a life modeling class yesterday, and this time I was the model (in underwear I must add)! This was for a seminar my boyfriend is giving (Tom, third drawing on this page) at his school. It was really nice to do, I had to do a lot of short gestures and the students used different techniques. I'm going to do it again tomorrow but then in different clothes, so they can study textile drawing and movement of clothing.

I am really looking forward to doing it again and am really curious what the students will reach this time.
