Graduating and Degree show

Sorry for the lack of posting, with a degree show, deadlines and jetting off to america i haven't had the time to blog. That is now changing.

Update. I graduated. I now have a BA with Honours in Art and Design. I am now in America teaching art to children with autism, with a wide range of abilities.

Here are my degree show pieces, all of them are for sale, contact rosiemphillips@hotmail.co.uk, if you have any questions about the pieces.

Screen printing

I have started screen printing, its looking good although I'm debating whether to start working on a larger scale. My work is about the quotidian object and the narrative behind the cutlery we have. Looking artists such as sigma polke who influences my work for the concept behind his own work. Martin parrs photography and displaying of work can be seen to influence my own work.

Blue print...

Working with cutlery teapots and cups and saucers i have been looking more at blue print china not liking working with black ink has encouraged me to look into other colours. Blue print china tells a story or a narrative which is what a collection or odd pieces of cutlery can do as well.

I am now collecting vintage tea sets ready to print on...bring it on. 

Current Work

 Drawing, layers & texture

 Prints, using stencils, focusing on the image and space, moving on to the placing of the object

 Colour prints- surface and texture

 Exhibition pieces.

My current work is related to the quotidian object, focusing on artists such as Sigma Polke, Kiki Smith, Jim Dine and Martin Parr. Im looking at the everyday object, specifically at knives and forks, spoons and teapots all of which i find can differ depending on the person or occasion. My photography looks more into texture, colour and surface with some interesting effects which have helped to influence my prints.
