Uncharted Waters Exhibition

6/2/2014

0 Comments

 
Last week saw the Leeds College of Art Foundation Exhibition opening its doors to the world at large, and the results were truly amazing! From cling-film wrapped branches to walls coated in sugar cubes, there was something to cater for every taste. The final piece of my project (below) was a visual representation of a fictional journey taken into uncharted waters, with the 'expedition leader' (Sir Pellegrin Cadmar) finding and naming Chimaera Isle as a result. Each lino print - representing the shape of the island/the geological layers of the island/a birds-eye-view of the island respectively- was made in four parts as they were too big to fit in the printing press in one piece! They were then painted with watercolour, scanned in and enlarged to three times their original size, so that the entire piece measured around 3m/1m. It was constructed using photoshop before being test-printed in black and white. The chimaeras at the bottom were discovered on the island, and were created using a Max Ernst inspired collage technique using old engravings as a starting point. If you're interested in purchasing either the test print or the real deal, please get in touch!
The point of the work was to make the viewer believe that such a place could exist - creatures, geology and all. 
Who knows? Maybe it does...
