£1.75



Today we had a tutorial, we got to explain our idea to our tutors who seemed to like it. We were asked to show what we had done over easter. None of our group had done much as we had only recently got our concept and we had been putting off going to the Junk shop to buy our items, as our group hadn't been able to meet up all together. After speaking to Hannah we decided that we needed to get our project kickstarted, so half of our group went to Empire Exchange to see what we could get for £1.75/£17.50. Chelsey and I have decided to collaborate and so decided we would get a range of similar items to create our project from. We decided to get 4 items which came to £17.50. We bought a wind up rabbit, a vintage nursery rhyme book, a magic roundabout kaleidoscope and a china plate. We liked the fact that all of our items have a distinctive colour palette we can build on and all are related due to being children's toys. I am going to take my project further by drawing and using photography before I explore and experiment in the print room. I am a also going to research into Children's toys from the 60s and 70s.
Tamzin decided to buy a comic which she is going to research and build her project from. Jordan bought an old football programme, he has decided to research into rivalry in football and he is going to create a documentary on his findings. Hannah bough a figurine which she is going to further research into and photograph it in 175 different places.
