Part1 Progress Tutorial Reflection

For this tutorial, my tutor had raised the issue of me putting the content in the wrong category.

For the Research part, I was worried about having too much artist research will detract people from my main concept or inspiration. However, now I know it's okay to have a wilder range of artist research so I'm planning to do research about artists that create artwork surround by the idea of healing, mental health, trauma, and childhood memories etc. Furthermore, I will look up more sculpture artists as well to see if there's any technique I can refer into my work.

In Reflection, I messed up a lot while writing it. Due to the reason that I want to explain why or what inspires me to do the following this and that so I put other artists' work in the reflection. However, I realized it will confuse people and think that's part of my own work. After the progress tutorial, I have awareness of what I should really include on the reflection page. My reflection is more like a diary, talking about what I've done instead of analyzing what I've learnt. In the following weeks, I will focus on answering the reflective prompts in the lecture and the feedback I receive on the padlet from tutorials and peers.

For Outcomes & Sketchbook, I was too scared of not showing the best outcome or result from the experiment I did. Thus, I didn't put much of what I had done for the projects. However, I now notice the importance of documenting everything and steps, also the whole process of the work. In hence, I will now upload more alternative ideas/forms/materials tested through the experiments.

Last but not least, the documenting pictures I had uploaded should not be black and white for a performative / sculpture piece. Making the pictures in black and white will suggest the photos are an endpoint or that the sculpture is intended to be jewelry/prop. Then, I will consider more while photoshopping the pictures and any kinds of documents.

I'm glad these problems are not too hard to improve and I will definitely be more wear of those issues the tutor had mentioned. If I didn't attend the tutorial I might not notice how these details will affect the overall result. Basically, I will now do more research on both the concept I'm interested in and other range of artists to enrich my different aspects of knowledge and understanding. In the reflection area, I will focus more on reflecting on the feedback from peers and tutors. Finally, be more aware of the picture (documents) I am uploading.
