For this piece of work we were asked to use Ruskin Hall as the context. As in 2013 the building hosts an International School, and the Art and Design course moves to Margaret Street.
Ruskin Hall to me is merely a space in which I undertake my degree, the building itself has no influence on the way I work it is merely a host for exhibiting pieces.
I also feel making a piece of wok directly about Ruskin Hall is in some way negative, it is going against the ultimate evolution of change, which led to stagnation.
My piece of work looks at what I have taken from studying in Bournville. The jug an element from a previous piece of work. This is symbolic of a vessel, the porous element of my time within this space. The chocolate represents the knowledge I have obtain and sometimes the things that go missing which I sometimes wish I had remembered.
The perspex box represents Bournville as a ‘model town’
