C o m m u n i c a t i o n ( f r o m t h e L a t i n
‘communicare’, meaning “to share”) is the activ‐
ity of conveying information through the ex‐
change of thoughts, messages or information
through speech, visuals, signals, writing or be‐
haviour. Communication to me is something
important as I oen #nd it difficult to express
my ideas in writing and to communicate my
understanding clearly. I wanted to #gure out in
this project if I could change my own concept
of communication as the exchange of informa‐
tion between two or more people.

broidery, London College of Fashion
My intention with my 'Chance' project was to
remove myself from the decision making
progress when creating my work. I le some of
my decisions - which colors and brush types I
would use – to chance through controlled ex‐
periments. I based some of my ideas on the
work of John Cage, notably River Rocks and
Smoke (1990) and 10 Stones (1989) wherein
Cage used his ‘familiar chance options’ to deter‐
mine both the colour and the choice of materi‐
als within the work.

Progression: UALab Foundation course in Art
and Design, Leyton Sixth Form College
My project was initially inspired by the work of
David orpe with his paintings of buildings at
night. I developed my ideas by watching several
movies to explore scenes that I have found in‐
spiring and visually interesting. I have attempt‐
ed to use the possibilities of the cinematic im‐
age to capture speci#c atmospheric conditions.

Colour/Line (dimensions variable, pen, paper)
Progression: BA (Hons) Spatial Design, Lon‐
don College of Communication
My project was about experimenting with
colour, line and shape, things that make up our
everyday experience through the sense of sight.
I wanted to explore, how a single colour can
change our emotions, feelings and behavior
through its interaction with other colours: how
can certain colours or patterns transform our
spatial perception?

Femininity (dimensions variable, photocopies,
nail polish on acrylic, false nails)
Progression: BA (Hons) Sculpture, Camber‐
well College of Arts
My project theme aimed to explore the qualities
and characteristics that revolve around the fe‐
male form. I aimed to address how femininity
has oen been imagined as oppressive be‐
haviour through the buying and wearing make‐
up, nail polish and shoes. For me the act of buy‐
ing womanly things is quite obsessive and the
objects purchased can form a collection. Al‐
though I aim to reinforce feminism, this has
not consumed my project and I aimed to em‐
brace femininity by using a range of female gar‐
ments and utilities to show muliebrity and
womanliness within the sculpture and imagery.
Within my series of posters I begin to touch
upon gender politics and other social issues.

Room (dimensions variable, string, nails, ob‐
jects)
Progression: BA (Hons) Spatial Design, Lon‐
don College of Communication
For the past 14 years I have lived in a con#ned
space sharing a room with my brother. e only
privacy I have in this situation is when I open
my wardrobe door, creating a space within a
room in an attempt to create my own territory
through division. I feel that on a subconscious
level, lack of my own personal space has fuelled
my interest in interiors. I am interested in ex‐
ploring the differences between permanent and
temporary space and issues such as privacy vs.
public and function vs. aesthetics.

Time past (dimensions variable, digital print,

Progression: BA (Hons) Interior Design, De
Montford University, Leicester
In what sense are we a product of our environ‐
ment? How is our life predetermined by where
we grew up? Are we ever free from in'uence?

Distortion (dimensions variable, digital photo‐
graph)
Progression: BA (Hons) Fashion Photography,
London College of Fashion
I want to think about what ideas or aspects of
contemporary life are distorted. For example,
does the media only reveal what they want you
to see, distorting peoples views from the actual
truth? Is photography an accurate record of re‐
ality?

tographs)
Progression: UALab Foundation course in Art
and Design, London College of Communica‐
tion
Uta Barth’s photography focuses on how he sees
reality and how a camera records it, instead of
focusing on the technicality of what the image
actually consists of. is interested me greatly,
the way in which things happen without any
obvious plan or cause, to do something by acci‐
dent or to do something even though it is risky.
is project starts by having my camera around
my neck to continuosly capture my existence.
Antoneta Velicko
Shopping (dimensions variable, photographs)
Progression: BA (Hons) Photography,
Kingston University
I am drawn to photography as I am interested
in the way the camera captures different aspects
of reality. Currently I am interested in exploring
a range of surfaces to explore ideas such as con‐
tained space, interiors, acts and historical
events that may have happened within these
spaces that they contain. Referencing past
painters, I have been inspired to take pho‐
tographs that parody their work: artists such as
Gerhard Richter, Robert Ryman, Mart Rothko,
Barnett Newman and Clyfford Still. Issues of
consumerism also excite me and I will explore
this through a range of images taken to record
peoples shopping habits and environments. I’m
interested in exploring people’s attachments to
materialistic values and possessions and won‐
der if progressive consumption of goods is eco‐
nomically bene#cial in the end.

Lost (dimensions variable, string, maps, paint,
screenprinting on paper, laser cut paper)
Progression: UALab Foundation Course in Art
and Design, Leyton Sixth Form College
rough utilising a combination of different
maps of London and Poland, layered amongst
drawn journeys and broken sentences, I wanted
to show a juxtaposition of those two countries:
how different they are, yet how they maintain
the same level of meaning to me. rough my
work I wanted to show my feeling of cultural
confusion and how I am in both places at the
same time.

e sound of the machine (dimensions variable,
mixed media on paper)
Progression: UALab Foundation course in Art
and Design, Leyton Sixth Form College
My project focused on the relevance of ma‐
chines and whether or not machines should get
as much credit as artists for the production of
artwork. I intended to have artwork that was
created by the use of machines and see whether
or not people appreciate it as much as the other
works of art in the exhibition. Halfway through
my project I began to incorporate sound with
my machine work to further extend my project,
as I thought that sound was a topic I could ex‐
plore more freely. e people that in'uenced
me theoretically were Karl Marx and his theory
on Capitalism and the proletariat, Walter Ben‐
jamin’s e work of art in age of mechanical re‐
production and ierry De Duve’s theory on
consumerism. I was also in'uenced, both visu‐
ally and conceptually, by artists such as DJ
Simpson, Zimoun, Bernhard Leitner and Jim
Lambie.

Line (dimensions variable, laser cut garments,
zips, mixed media on paper)
Progression: BA (Hons) Fashion Design Tech‐
nology: Womenswear, London College of
Fashion
Within this project I was interested in exploring
line with the intention to investigate its use: the
idea of a line being present as a divider or con‐
nection. My aim was to understand how line
can be used as support, supplying strength and
structural stability to three-dimensional form,
yet when the shape is changed or positioned in
a particular way it can deceive the eye through
creating a false impression: such as when line is
used to create an illusion of a contour on the
body, as found within the work of om
Browne, Comme des Garcons or Yohji Ya‐
mamoto. I also considered line in other con‐
texts. e organic use of line in terms of the
body; wrinkles on the palm, the pattern of the
human skin, hair follicles, and eye lashes. I also
wanted to look at invisible lines, such breaks
between words, or lines that indicate bound‐
aries, such as those found in parking spaces or
the work of Sol Le Witt.

Skin (dimensions variable, photographs)
Progression: UALab Foundation course in Art
and Design, Leyton Sixth Form College
What is skin? Is it a boundary, a protective
layer? A container? A barrier? My work aims to
address these concerns through exploring the
beauty of the damaged outer layer.

Sequence (dimensions variable, altered architec‐
tural plans, fabric samples, mixed media
collage)
Progression: BA (Hons) Surface Design for In‐
teriors, Swansea Metropolitan University
Sequence became important to me in this
project; I came to realize how important rou‐
tine and structures are in the way people go
about their lives. roughout this project I ex‐
plored the way sequence is used through rou‐
tine, order, lines and cycles which then led the
project eventually to my own sense of identity. I
explored myself, recognizing that I like to ar‐
range things in particular ways and to continu‐
ously have to put things in order: does this
make me OCD? e roots of this compulsion
are to be found at home – it is interesting to see
how my Mum and Dad live their lives through
their careers, my Mum trough studying to be a
tailor and my Dad’s career as a drasman. Ulti‐
mately my Mum was the main in'uence in this
project, as she is the most dominate amongst
my family when it comes to organization.
