Mid Project Crit

NOTES:

-relationship between drawings and weaving is strong
-the connection its has to the line of women in my family and utilising raft material is relevant and something to look into more.
-Look at artist josh riley- roots and fruits make out of sparkles and gems
-Could you stitch the patches together? create a larger blanket
-Do you see the video moving forward from where it is?
-How about weaving soaked in milk?
-There’s a good translation of drawings to weavings but how far can that strand carry on the nurture idea?
-What about the visceral qualities of milk? – how taste and smell changes as it sours
– Was interested in the fact i find milk disgusting – in that it’s such an important part of nurture and nature- Where can i go with this?
-look into the taboo/disgust with breastfeeding- there must be a logical reason for that?

THOUGHTS/NEXT STEPS:
-I need to diversify my approach whilst continuing the weaving explorations in parallel.
-i want to continue with the video exploring movement of material and how it could combine with milk exploration
-start to bring in writing work- perhaps use what was learnt with sequential workshop
– should i use myself in the work, wrapping myself in blanket, bathing in milk, washing words away?
