Unit 2: Positions through iterating / week 001

28/04/2022

Some of the iterations I made in the first week, I chose collage as the method and newspaper as a topic. I made some of the iterations using a chart that hopefully helps me in deciding what story to be generated on my collages. So I gathered headline–or highlight event in my country in a decade. But I ended up only using 20 of them, and the rest are just random meaningless collages.”

Honestly the more I am making it, the more meaningless it is. At some point, I feel sick of it–making collages out of the same headlines. Keep seeing the same images for 3 days. I do not know what I was doing, I thought of changing direction but I do not know what to do–yet.

Some feedback I got is, yes, my collages are meaningless and I need to do something about it so it is meaningful.

In the middle of confusion, I decided to have the Office Hour™ (hopefully it has a longer time in the future hahah). It was an advice from Andrew which I hardly can understand because maybe he has no idea what I was doing in the first week and I am bad at choosing words to elaborate my mind. But, thank you for giving references– I found another references by searching with your reference keyword.”

an official note from the Office Hour™

Rather than thinking about what I have to do for this assignment,I ended up spend my weekend in Brighton (lol) visiting Brighton Illustration fair and accidentally hiking the Seven Sister cliffs while fasting. It supposed to clear my mind–which currently insane at that moment. Few days before deadline, I came up with several ideas which I can continue on the next post~

anyway, here are some of my fav collages
