Narratives in Art.
Welcome to "Narratives in Art," a space where I explore the stories behind my creative practice. As I navigate my journey through a master's in fine art at Central Saint Martins, this blog serves as both a reflective journal and a platform to share the evolving processes, inspirations, and challenges that shape my work. Join me in uncovering the layers of meaning and experimentation that define my art, and discover the narratives that unfold along the way.
“Belonging” by Amanda Thomson.
In this blog post, I reflect on Belonging by Amanda Thomson and its deep exploration of memory, place, and identity. Through my personal connection to the themes of the book, I explore how raw landscapes strip away labels, offering space for deeper self-discovery and emotional resonance that informs my artistic practice.
First Group Critique.
Participating in my first group critique session was both nerve-wracking and exhilarating as I shared my large-scale experimental piece for the first time. The feedback I received, from technical tips like using a stipple brush to deeper inspirations such as exploring Sohrab Sepehri’s work and Chinese Freehand brush techniques, left me with an unexpected burst of motivation. This experience marked a pivotal moment, moving me from guarded creation to confident exploration, and showed me that sharing my art amplifies its meaning rather than diminishes it.
