This unit, engaging with the audience-coincided with the Manchester Art gallery Brief which was asking how art and culture shaped the city, and who’s art and culture shaped the city.
Before starting this brief, in the summer I had stumbled upon the bauhaus. I think through a mixture of randomly selected videos on youtube and hearing some people I was around discussing it. I began looking into an researching more, watching multiple documentaries, then going onto borrowing some books rom my college library. I ended up centring my research around artist who were apart of or incorporate bauhaus esque qualities within their work. From here, I started experimenting with different styles of flat, sort of printed work. Learning how to operate photoshop on a basic level and overlay images on the printer in different colours. I began to create a series of images. Most of which originating from collage and developing on, through the use of colour, overlay and inversion to become striking images, and posters.
