This piece worked as a test for mirrors, interestingly enough, reflective surfaces aren’t meant to be able to see each other or be within different planes. However this seems not to have bothered my mirrors as they still reflect what they see. The viewer is stuck in the chair with only the ability to look…

After my tutorial, I decided that it was to be my course of action to try to create some environments within the Source engine (a game engine created by Valve for games such as Half Life 2, Counter Strike: Source, Portal) and the hammer editor. I knew that the source engine was good for creating…

The talk featured ‘historian, writer and broadcaster Charlotte Mullins, Senior Lecturer in Fine Art Theory at Chelsea College of Art and Design Dan Smith and Professor Karin Moelling whose research into…

After messing around with various glitching techniques, I needed to start putting my focus back onto the architectural and landscape aspects of my work that pushed me into that frame in the first place. Armed with the photographs I took over the summer that can be seen in this post here, I began again to…

His use of technologies, such as VR Headsets to create a narrative environment we can not…

Walking into Lazarides gallery in Soho, I was immediately overawed at the artwork on display to me. Ian Francis’s works carry the depth and sense of sublime taken from works by John Martin and the intimacy of the works of Joseph Wright of Derby and pairs that with an aesthetic that is immediate and ethereal and…

The works here are all created using the pixel sorting method and Processing. For this first set of images, I was just playing around with types of images and how they’re affected differently by the code and playing around with different parameters of the code. Some of these have created very interestingly textured images that…

I wrote a really long post about this but then it didn’t save, I have been putting it off since. In short it was a very interesting look at non-british marble sculpture of the 20th century, though not the most thrilling or radical work I have ever seen. I particularly enjoyed ‘untitled’ -1978 and the…
