Throughout this project, I am going to continue in the same direction as in the previous project as I feel like I have definitely found my strengths and would like to continue to develop this further by exploring new visual techniques. I will continue to build my strengths within Resolume, Photoshop, Illustrator and also on the Laser Cutter but I would like to step outside of my comfort zone within this project and induct myself in new workshops not previously used.
The main theme of this project is Microscopic. After coming across lots of inspiring images on Pinterest such as ‘Bev Shots’ which are photographs of alcohol under a microscope. These high-quality photographs of beers, wines, cocktails, liquors and mixers that were taken after they have been crystallized on a slide and shot under a polarized light microscope. As the light refracts through the beverage crystals, this resulting in the photographs having magnificent colors and composition. And also a similar technique used within Jon Hopkins art work Immunity, a favourite producer of mine, which involved a stunning time-lapse photography of crystal growth and chemical reactions by art director Craig Ward and Biochemist Linden Gledhill in the form of a visual experience.
I believe that this sort of visual imagery would be perfect for my projections, as I like to work with a lot of bright and vibrant colours in an abstract sort of way. This has encouraged me to carefully think of a way in which I will be able to re create some of my own microscopic imagery first hand using a polarized light microscope and will do more research into how I can go about this within my project.
I aim to achieve a strong body of visual work achieved through drawings, photographs and other creative techniques that I feel are good enough to take forward and use within my collaborative project in which I will then create a final piece.
