last bit of exhibition installation techniques and protocol
my work is rather more traditional and calmer than others going into the gallery and my work will work better in a series as mine is about journey/ wandering
development, selection and preparation of your work for display
wolfgang tillmanns
rashid rana
matt apps - flower 2015 - reclining 2015
never let your print touch the glass of your frame will run the print and stick to the glass
type 55 - polaroid
as my work is square was thinking about how i may print it being in the centre of a a4 size paper for a easy visual. either to have the image fully centred with even space top and bottom or to have it like a polaroid with more space at the bottom
then after that thought to see if i was to make it polaroid like to have the title as such which would the road name or have the building name made in the style of a label maker being monochrome will keep the theme of my work consistent or just leave the space blank and have title next to the image or not at all.
split batten - very nice and safe way of handing work up

artist statement
could play with the height of my images are on the wall as i am personally shorter than most so it could be like the viewer is seeing it from my perspective
selection ( from what we have)
putting up my testers from the 22/11/18 that 18 turned out of the possibly 24
realise that i like the square format which it thought i wouldn't like as i like my portrait format
rather like the polaroid look with the square on a rectangular shape paper night try out centred the image
feedback from other students and tutors:
disorientating on my close up of the scaffolding and lane down town hall
scaffolding big one rather trip and symmetrical
close up scaffolding structure of the building? confusing? mysterious
most people like the closer images rather than what i normally take
liked the polaroid style
think it would work with a white think border and frame
fibre based see how it warmer or on slightly different paper
think that my images would work best in a pub or industrial setting rather than a plain white wall
like a square image in grid form and most of the close up

photo book workshop part 2
continuing from the last work shops we done stencil screen print and this week we followed onto doing photographic screen printing which i rather enjoyed as i havent really done photographic screen printing before. i printed mine onto not only blank paper but some of my prints from the week before but as well made some off using a blank screen and making a block colour for my photographic print to go on top. which i made the block colour blue and the print a orange which i thought would go well as they are opposite colours on the colour wheel.

photobook workshop part 1
morning
had a look at books my tutor has done in the past to see what did and didnt work along with giving us possible ideas for our work.
first one was a a3 book with the pages sewn together as they werent printed double sided, with the fastenings being a metal clasp to bind the pages together to make the book only problem is that the book didnt open every well and you could feel bad for bending the pages to see the whole image. like that its a different material but dont really work effectively.



found 2 magazines that were similar so i thought to compare the 2 together see which i prefer which the first magazine was optika book based with the foto festival in ipswich and then loupe magazine which is a magazine mainly for up and coming photographers to submit there work to be discovered.
optika
yellow title matching the colour of the logo of the foto festival
logo is set at the bottom right
issue number is under title and not clear to read i find when quickly looking
has glossy paper through the whole book
layout looks a little busy

loupe
black or white title goes with more work as they use colour and black and white images on there cover so it dont contrast or clash with the work
logo is mixed into the title page making the cover look more professional and thought out
isue number is at the bottom of the page in a clear font and spelt ‘issue seven’ instead of ‘#1′ which is easier to read when picking it up
has matt paper throught the whole magazine ca see it has more money going into it as well as having more pages in jt but it has been around longer
like the simple layout very easy to follow and looks more professional i find

made a few rough books on the spot with what prints i had in my locker got a rough idea of if i was to make a book how i would like it to be presented.
and finally looked into a catalogue or booklets be handy for people to see your work rather than just giving them a business card which i really like and it being a reasonable price. rather similar to the one we was given at brighton only looks more like a book rather than just a folded piece of paper looks more professional i think which i really like.
afternoon
we had a workshop in screen printing which i personally have done before but was fun to experiment with different materials and expand what we could include with our work.
i done a quick stencil of the name of my website SOPHIEDAY19 in red to match the theme of my website.

Brighton - Biennial and Fringe festival 2018
11/10/18
exhibtions that i managed to attend were:
-bill bradnt
-aikaterini gegisian
-tereza cervenova
-emeric lhuisset
-cross channel, photographic mission.(lewis baltz, marilyn bridges, jean louis, phillipe lasage, josef koudelka, chirstian courreges, fabiana figueiredo, bruce gilden, bernard prosse, jane alison and brigitte lardinois
-alex bamford
-donovan wylie
-uta kogelsberger
-heather agyepeng
my thoughts on Brighton and the exhibitions i saw:
to be really honest about it all that i personally found more outside of the exhibitions than i did in any of them which is unfortunate. but i did get a lot of images on my phone and on me pentax mx (analogue) camera.
University of Brighton Galleries- Edward street
bill brandt- not what i was expecting as it was just one of his books and scan of it on the walls around which i was hoping for ‘real’ prints as to scans and not very good scans at that sadly.But found the images rather different liked that each photo had its title on the bottom right and what im guessing is French oh the right bottom of the page.



aikaterini gegisian- it was a tv display which looked rather random just put in the corner sort of out the way not apart of anything just seems very odd and personally wouldnt have got the theme or subject behind the work although i didnt listen to the headphones on top which would have helped but just from a looking perspective looked odd.

tereza cervenova- honestly was hard to find this part of the exhibition as you had to go up a door that had a card access point which we had to ask for help as to where the gallery was and to why the door was closed. but about the work as different as most work is hung in a frame on a wall and centred which is the normal. where as with this work it was placed in a more scattered way thats what i seems first off. i like that as there not in a frame the paper curls naturally with bigger prints which most if they were to have prints on there own would straighten them out or put weights in the bottom to have a flat image which i enjoy. personally dont see a full connection with the referendum but as its response you wont see direct links but was very interesting with the displace even with the books to the side of the exhibition where the pages of the book are dismantled instead of being a whole which is different. didnt like the use of man made light as i couldnt really see the images to there full possiblity as outside was so light making it dark even though there was lights on.


emeric lhisset- one of the made reasons as to why i liked this work was mainly that the work was cyanotypes which is where the photographic material turns blue once exposed to light and the processed so you can see the image similar to black and white only that instead of white, black and greys you get white, dark blue and light blue. so to see a wall of blue as to colour or black and white it was different and i liked that stands out from most. but as to the subject or theme of the image i didnt see that the cyanotypes went ‘unfixed’ as such meaning the images change from what they are meant to be to slowly get darker due to being exposed to the light didnt see that much change from how long they have been up there although i have seen another photographers instagram about the work and could see by his image that the prints had darkened even by a few weeks in between viewings and that i didnt see the idea of many generations of migrant to Europe through these images it seemed like someone was just taking photos and same with the layout very far away from each other didnt really make sense to have them that far away from each other. but was nice to see them with natural lighting.



University of Brighton- Grand Parade
cross channel photographic mission:
lewis batlz- found his work different as it was a book similar to the handle out about all the exhibitions for the biennial festival as its folds out. interesting that he didnt leave a border on any of his images as what most do. but after looking at his work online the original prints are the height if most walls so i can see that he wouldnt leave any space as his prints are so large think he is trying to match them together. as for the photographs themselves really bold with both colour and black and white especially as most people wont put both of them together either black and white or just colour which is interesting.

marilyn bridges- found the images different as there are of aerial shots from a helicopter im guessing which most photographers dont tend to use the birds eye view angle often mainly due to subject. but i think with this subject and body of work it helps as most would have taken the shot from ground level and wouldnt have the same effect. not sure on the dark brown frames as i can see why she has done brown as most are either black or white which can blend in to the work as the image is black and white but i dont think a dark warm tones brown was the best way to go.

philippe lesage- rather like the warm tones of the image i personally didnt find the subject of the images not very interesting but landscapes aint really my thing but i like the frames like that there square and have a think border inbetween the photo and frames.

jean-louis garnell- like the set up of the six on a block as such as most would have in a row but i like that these are bunched together which i will considering it for when im thinking on how to set up my work for the exhibition in a few weeks and explore more for my final exhibition. i think the the border around the image is a bit much would preferred more image as it looks to much.

josef koudelka- i believe that these photos were the photographers first attempt of panoramics which is different as most work is your current were as this is later work i beilve which i like. like that the frames are a silver as to black, white or a natural wood colour which i know i personally didnt think of which i really like.

christian courreges- really like the Polaroid look of having square images and to put them in a regular frame so that there is more border at the bottom to give that look. really like the the thin frames work well the the images an border.

fabiana figueiredo- was different as it was pages from im guessing a book. like some of the layouts as some have 3 in 2 smaller on each side and a big image in the middle spreading across the 2 pages which i like.

bruce gildn- good size to see all the details of the images. on a plus can see the theme once you read the info on the side but if its on it own you couldnt tell like the framing and the border size just the subject is personally not my think.

bernard prossu- thought this work was rather different as most of the images were based on a poem which i havent seen before which i like as its different to most work you see these day. really like the 6 images in a block and loved the strip of negatives at the bottom so you can see more images rather different will look and explore this more with my own work shame the bigger image isnt bigger as its hard to see with the light glaring on it so having the images slightly bigger would have helped along with the border looked to thick for the top image made it look even smaller than it already was. could have done with a bigger image and less border in my opinion.

jubilee square
uta kogelsberger
found this rather different due to its size as its a cargo container which means you dont need a frame but it means the work is open to not only the elements but the public with kids going up and touching but then again it is replaced daily so the damage wont be as bad if it was the same images for the duration of the exhibition. with this in mind i couldnt find a info page as such so if you didnt have the leaflet you would really have a full understanding of the work. i did notice a stand that had postcards of each image that has or is to be exhibited which is good so you can see all the work as a body which helps you see the effect and use of different subjects. along with its a shame someone felt the need to write something rude and offensive on the work with biro which takes the meaning away from the work.

jubilee library
heather agyepong
i didnt really understand the work fully mainly due to its location that it being in a library felt i was introducing which i know i wasnt as its a public space but thats how it felt going in. also didnt think much to the presentation of the work as it was printed on a big roll of paper and hung over a metal bar which didnt look right especially in a library and along with the other work in the square it didnt have a info page as such so i had no idea as to what the work was about till i looked in the leaflet and as for the work its self i personally didnt enjoy it or understand much even after reading the info from the leaflet.

sea front/on beach
leon bellis, steve boyle, audrey marshall, colin miller, ellen miller, colleen slater and david wilsdon
i liked how the work was presented as it matched the subject of the work very well being as the work was of port life as the title suggests. really like the use of different photographers which different styles but on the same subject as you get a good variation on the subject see different representations. i like the use of the rocks at the bottom to weight the work down due to the strong sea breeze then having the work printed on a card plastic like board to make sure with work can survive the elements and still be able to see the work. enjoyed that it was outside made it more interactive which is always more fun.


west pier centre
alex bamford
i like the simplicity of the room as it was just his work and if it was on sale which i l liked had postcards to by with prints and then the main body of work. like that the prints were different sizes for size of the place but made it not so samey as such and it more interesting to the eye as they are all of the same place but different weathers and occasions. but with that in mind i like that they are all framed the same so there similar but not at the same time. and was rather sweet of volunteer working turned the light of so we could get better pictures of the work.

fishing quarters gallery
donovan wylie
not what i thought the work was going to be as the idea of a light house you have in mind just a standard photo bu this was different with that its of a light house in France with the photo taken in England with a boat in the middle rather a same the images is blurred almost so you have to get up close but makes you look at the work for longer making you think more which i like. rather different as well it being on a blooming big light box defiantly bigger than 5ft at least which was different to all the other work.

started to look into the my local building history as ipswich is a old town.
‘nine of ipswich’s oldest buildings reminds us of our marvelous history’
by ipswich star
ancient house, 46-48 buttermarket
this remarkable building was built in the 15th century, with orginal parts from the 1567, nut mostly dating from 1631.
pykenham’s gate house, northgate street
in 1471, william pykenham was named the Archdeacon of Suffolk and had his Ipswich property on Northgate Street extended. He had an impressive gateway built out of brick, which was a sign of wealth at the time, as well as timber. The gatehouse was restored in 1983 by the Ipswich Building Preservation Trust who also uses it as their headquarters.’
christcurch mansion, christchurch park
this marvelous mansion from the tutor era was originally called withipoll house. it was believed to be built by edmund withypoll in 1548, after the death of his father paul withypoll, who was a master merchant trader and merchant adventurer before his death in 1547.
wolsey gate, 4 college street
this worn and decorated gate located in ipswich’s busy one-way system was built in 1528 by Cardinal Thomas Wolsey, who had a keen interest in education and planned to create 12 schools across the country, with one in his hometown of Ipswich. Wolsey fell from power after being unable to secure approval for Henry VIII’s divorce of Catherine of Aragon, and passed away in 1530, putting all construction to a standstill.
st mary le tower, tower street
This church located within the centre of Ipswich was believed to be built in the 13th century. It was definitely in use in June 1200, when King John’s Charter was delivered to the churchyard. By around 1450, a lot of the church needed rebuilding, and with the help of a will from William Gowty in 1448, the north and south nave aisles were built. The church we see today, was almost entirely rebuilt in the 1860s.
unitarian meeting house, st nicholas street and friars street
This largely original building is thought to be the only remaining purpose built timber-framed meeting house of its time. The building contract was agreed in 1699 and is believed to have been built between that year and 1670, with the official opening being held in April 1700. The building we see today is in need of immediate repair and maintenance due to its originality.
st margarent’s church, soane street
This grade I listed building has records dating back to 1307, but the oldest part of the church dates back to the end of the 13th century. It was built by the priors of Holy Trinity Priory in order to house the population of Ipswich which was continuously growing, as they could no longer be housed in the nave of the Priory Church nearby.
quay place, key street
This church was built near the beautiful Ipswich waterfront in the 15th century between 1448 and the 1450s. It was originally named St Mary at the Quay, but its new name Quay Place was given after it was given a new purpose. The mental health charity, Suffolk Mind, was awarded £3.6 million from the Heritage Lottery Fund to repair the church from its crumbling state, and transform it to a wellbeing and heritage centre that opened a year ago.
St Mary’s at the Elm Church, 29 Elm Street
Located in the centre of Ipswich, there are parts of the grade II listed building that date back to the 11th century. The oldest part of the church is its Norman doorway, as well as its Nave which dates back to the 15th century, and its 16th century tower. In 1883, there was serious repairs to the Nave and Chancel.
wikipedia
The Willis building (originally the Willis Faber & Dumas regional headquarters) in Ipswich, England, is one of the earliest buildings designed by Norman Foster and Wendy Cheesman after establishing Foster Associates. Constructed between 1970 and 1975 for the insurance firm now known as Willis Towers Watson, it is now seen as a landmark in the development of the 'high tech' architectural style.
In 1991 the Willis building became the youngest building to be given Grade I listed building status in Britain. At the time it was one of only two listed buildings under 30 years of age.

starting third year
05/10/18
wednesday 3rd october 2018
dissertation talks:
re-enrole on moodle (key-reflect)
module guide contextual studies year 3
illustrated dissertation-just show photographers work
*form RE1- HE student portal area-fill in form before starting dissertation and give back to tutor to sign
put figure 1 ( eg Fig.1) not put image above not professional
look at higher education student handbook
proposal hand in moodle 500 words worth 10%
hand in proposal - 31/10/18 - marked
hand in draft- 09/01/19 -try and do 2/3 - not marked
hand in dissertation - 27/02/19 - marked worth 90% 6,000 words look at module guide before hand in
use Chicago system
will hear of mark and feedback a month after hand in
think in chapters:
intro- 10% word count - what ,how,why,who,when
chapter 1 - 26% word count
chapter 2 - 26% word count
chapter 3 - 26% word count
conclusion - 10% word count - bring together all chapters, reiterate the key points and arguments.
your dissertation needs to demonstrate:
evidence of clear analysis and an ability to think critically. you need to interpret art and design. you not merely describe it. make us see the topic differently.
effective use of quotations, referencing, bibliography, etc, that supports your argument
a good use of english
evidence that your topic has been thoroughly researched
clarity of the overall argument- will we understand whats it all about? is there a point to it all? why should we care?
a coherent structure. build up your argument
how to write paragraphs and avoid a ‘stream of consciousness’…
each paragraph must have a central idea or theme
every sentence in the paragraph must relate to the central idea or theme
every sentence in the paragraph should be a mini conclusion, that round it off
the last sentence of one paragraph should connect with the first sentence of the next
italics and titles
italics are used for the title of all books, journals, plays, longer poems, pamphlets and any other entire published works
generally, quotations should not be written in italics. instead be in quotation marks. copy quote exactly with emphasis and english used
longer quotations can be presented in a separate paragraphs that are indented more deeply from your own paragraphs.
long quotations margins to 1.27cm left and right with no quotation marks
my tutors suggestions:
look into:
Maggie Ivyson
network _ Malcom Costells
James Bidle- technology
monday 1st october 2018
a description as to what i think my dissertation is going to be about:
its going to be about analogue vs digital exploring the positives an negative on both sides and also how colour or the lack of effects how people see it. along with how modern day item (instagram etc) effect the meaning of the images or reduces them for analogue and digital.
but may change or divert another way.
sunday 30th september 2018
starting looking into my pecha kucha presentation i started looking at people who inspire me to include in my presentation i used @nikelasporter and @_vikiking as i liked there work found them from my research for my dissertation and found James Attree as i looked to see any photographers that use analogue and their subject is architecture.

july:
had my work up at the minories gallery, Colchester which was a eye opener into a professional gallery. working with everyone there making the decisions on what goes where and putting it up and its something to add to my CV.
my thoughts on my work its that i ended up not physically hanging my work up but placing it on the mantle piece of the gallery. so i had the easiest work to put up by dusting and arranging which i wasn’t expecting at all. i decided to go with 5 instead of the 8 i had as the 5 worked best with one another with the images themselves as well 5 fitted best into the space on the mantle piece.
i think the strong structure of the mantle piece being that its Georgian helped my work being its about structure. most people thought it was photos of London as to Ipswich where they were shot as for some random reason my description wasn’t added under my name which would have helped people have more of a understanding of my work.
As well i used natural wood frames as its different in that with my work being black and white the beige wood tones would add warmth to the work which i think if i was to use white or black frames the work would look cold and harsh which i wasn’t going for. that and i knew everyone else would be likely going for black or white and i wanted my work to stand out. i also made sure that my prints weren’t centred as i think it adds a more chance of people looking because its not centred like everyone else’s work is along with that it plays on structures as centred work look structured and way to clean and cold for what i was going for. which i got this idea/inspiration from a photographer i saw march of this year at the Barbican that had work in frames but none of the images were in the centre which i like along with that he has some prints loose, some stuck to the wall all over lapping each other bit like a collage which i liked rather fun approach.
