While walking past the Righton building, as I normally do, I decided to stop and just have a look around. To get a feel of what the day was about and what inspiration I could take from the buildings around me. I then saw on the corner a piece of art which I would normally walk past. I went closer and saw the piece properly and stopped to read the piece of writing about it. It was a piece by David Batchelor, who works a lot with light and colour, and how he can merge the two and create subtle pieces of colour where one may not normally notice how colours harmonise with each other.
Our project brief is to create a piece of art/textiles for the new building, and one of the possible things we can look at is the idea of projecting light and colour into it through various ways and media, and I thought that this would be a useful way of doing this, but not the way that many textiles students would possibly see predominantly, as it uses television sets, something slightly out of a textile students comfort zone!
