For the practice development ideas lab we each chose an image of an artwork that we were interested in. We then swapped images and responded to that image in 4 mediums, a drawing, painting, sculpture and instructions for a performance.
My image I swapped too was “the Great Wave” by Hokusai.
In the next practice we went back to our original images and responded to the other person’s work that was created.
From this practice I have learnt how to recreate artworks more spontaneously and then recreate artwork from the recreation etc. I believe this is a helpful method to use when thinking of what work to create and a good way to create original work.
I have created a final finished piece for this project. I took aspects from the original and tried to incorporate the other persons work. I changed the perspective and positioning.
If I was to move forward with this I would consider recreating in as a sculpture or an animation. I would also explore different media such as using faux fur to contrast against the sharp claws.
