BA IVM Year 2 Zemei Wang Project 03: The First Picture of You – Who You Are

My first created collection (artworks collection)

I always think about how to identify myself when I cant be asleep at night. Finally I realize that I am just a normal person. I know I’m an introvert because I practice a lot of courage before I socialize with people.

How do others see me? I am quiet and modesty, my friend says.My legacy would be my art and ideas as I am an artist. I hope to draw more in the future.
I would say balloon represents me the most. Balloons could fly and are easily changed by the holder, and always get lost.

Artist mission statement: My main ambition is being recognized by others, if someone could get some energy form my artwork, It will give me power.

Manifesto:

Make each artworks meaningful. Give some information to the audience.

Try new things. Try different kinds of materials.

Follow my own heart. Don’t be bound by the outside world.

Feedback: more clear about manifesto and artist mission statement.

Research

I searched the personal pages of two artists, and found it very helpful for my production. The composition of LA Johnson’s website is very clear. She classifies her works and can intuitively find what the audience wants to see. The website of Malika Favre is as bold and original as her art. She took into account the style of her work and integrated it into the web.

When studying various artists’ websites, I can also enjoy a lot of works, and I enjoy the process very much. Ping Zhu’s website is very simple and clear, with the same style as hers, full of lovely and warm atmosphere. And classify each series of works. I like Loish’s website very much because it shows the artist’s strong painting technology and love of painting.

group tutorial

During the discussion with our tutor, we decided on the studio of our three projects. This is a very meaningful lesson because I can gradually distinguish four different studios and get very useful suggestions. For example, in my first project, I didn’t know where my work should be displayed. My classmates suggested that it should be placed between urban and rural areas. In addition, I also listened to other people’s projects and gave them suggestions.

Reflection

In this project, due to the need to create web pages, I reviewed all my works. Seeing the creation several years ago made me feel both nostalgic and fresh. Although the mood and feeling of the creation at that time was completely different from that of today, it was full of immature technology. But I hope I can keep on trying like that time.

In the process of making web pages, I thought it would be a challenge, but the use of Mobirise software made everything easier. When I put my works on, I enjoy the process very much, because when they are integrated, they reflect a part of me. It is a great honor for people who don’t know me to know me.
