Monsters?.


The group’s first collaborative task was to create an ‘exquisite corpse’.  Whilst other group members found the outcome to be aesthetically pleasing, I didn’t greatly appreciate the visual quality of the drawing. However, I did find the idea of combining different animals to make odd, unexpected creatures and so I used the idea behind the ‘exquisite corpse’ task and created my own creatures  initially through collage and then through drawings.
  Using the visual outcomes of the collages and hand drawing them to bring them back to my main area of interest: line drawing. Collage could be a good starting point for making work in future modules, as collages create images I would never expect myself to make through hand drawing. The collages are much more exploratory, and don’t have a sense of worry behind them, which some of my hand drawings may.
