Today we have been allocated our space for our collaboration project. We have started to display the posters and work out the room. Jane has acquired a large amount of material and herself and Donella are going to work hard on producing the main part of the display with it. Dan an i are going to work on the sound and we will get together to collect our individual research.
This afternoon we had a visiting lecture from illustrator and artist Andy Martin.
Andy visited the college about 18 months ago so i am familiar with his work and his style.
Here are some examples of his
illustrative commissions
Andy was commissioned by a magazine to promote the
change over from analogue to digital and this was his
final illustration for print.
This is a calendar that Andy's work became identifiable
by. A calendar for the millennium in stark contrast to
the regular calendars at this time.
His career has gone from strength to strength and he
is doing much of his commissioning around the world
and in particular in America. He talked about the collaborations
that he has been involved in and showed the film of his
most endearing 'End of the Street', of which he collaborated with
the writer Ian Macmillon. They worked together on this
project in a truelly linear way influencing and responding
to each other through out the process.
