P.S.

Wayne Rooney is so epicly poor it's untrue.
If Germany are an 'average' team... What does that make England?

Quite frankly... Disgusting.

Football

Can you believe that this team, the team that is hyped up as some sort
of 'wonder team' by the media have ruined the whole country's dreams?
Totally embarassing. Germany owned that game, we looked slightly like
we were going to get somewhere at one point, but were absolute rubbish.
These footballers are nothing special. It's all about the money for
them, not the game/country/love. Worst ever. Abysmal.

We need real footballers who care about the game, who focus and work
for their money.

Rant over :)

Video: Edit



As McNiff outlines; "Successful expression involves the ability to let materials and unplanned gestures lead the way." (pg.60, 1998)

As Barnes states; "A lot depends upon the perceptions we bring with us..." (pg. 3, 2002)

And Rookes and Willson explain; "Others believe that the brain uses past experiences and other influences to construct a version of reality." (pg.13,2000)

This video is my process, and I have put it together to accompany my images. I want the viewer to have to look twice, make them wonder what is going on. If viewers are questioning 'what the hell is this girl trying to achieve' I feel I will have achieved what I set out to do. I have expressed myself, and I will have achieved the challenging of peoples perceptions as the reality their brain constructs will not be real. (Rookes and Willson)

My Process

This is the video of my process.



It is only an experiment... And I don't like the "Is this how you percieved it to be" bit at the end, but as I say, it's my experiment. But actually, I quite like the rest of it.

Red Riding Hood Images

Here are a selection of my Red Riding Hood interpretation images.
I have a video too, and publishing it on YouTube has changed the quality. I am proud of the look of my model, and the scenery. I believe it begins to make the viewer think. Although I don't know if its enough...

Buren Images


The Buren images are intriguing. The second image is a painted wall, with sliders containing different coloured squares. The viewer can create their own view of the work by moving he sliding parts accordingly. This allows the viewer to change their original perceptions and ideas about the art work. I love this work, I think it would be quite useful for Jaz's particpatory art research too.
