The first gallery we visited on Day 1 of our 4 day Art Boot Camp was the Manchester Art Gallery exhibition "Do It".
I enjoyed the first gallery as it showed personality within itself it was also very interactive. There were some rooms that were almost experiments where photos of the room were shown somewhere else in the gallery.
There were some very strange displays, interactive displays. I enjoyed them. I liked the idea of two people holding an identical piece of ice and the first persons ice block to melt has warm blood.
There was also a room that was assigned to be drawn all over and there was a light switch in the middle. It was quite spooky but imaginative I think.
I personally quite enjoyed the gallery and found it interesting and fun!
After the first gallery we went to a street covered in graffiti. I loved the street and would adore waking up to see such a beautiful sight. I took a few photos and knew I wanted to do graffiti for my final piece.
Finally we went to a fashion museum which was my least favorite display out of all. I personally found it very boring and I didn't think there was much to it. All it was were people wearing clothes but at the end of the day it was art and everything is art and everybody is an artist in my opinion.
Wow i wrote this a hell of a long time ago... And by the way, The middle photograph is too over exposed; next time try dropping you iso or raising you f stop/ aperture.
ReplyDeleteThanks for that Ethan. I think it was one of you guys who took it. I think it was a dark room with flash on. As you know I'm a big hater of flash photos. To be avoided at almost all costs in my opinion. I'd forgotten about this blog so thanks for reminding me. Always good to look back on what we have done in the past. Do you know anybody who might like to run a Portrait workshop for us? What about you and your mum.
