As part of our personal development planning we were all
asked to create mind maps about our artistic and future career pathways. This
is a pretty scary thing to be thinking about but I just started listing artists
that I really like and that have done work linked to stuff ive created myself.
I was struggling a bit with the whole future planning thing but I watched this
video where Alis Pelleschi talked about her experience at university and how
she made contacts to get work after it. I suppose im saying that I want to be a
self-employed artist type person and I know that this is going to involve some
degree of self promotion and branding. Ive included social media on the map
because that can be a pretty good way of letting people see your work and maybe
meeting people to work with. I have this blog but I haven’t gone into any other
social media platform so far so I might consider doing that soon. I have a bit
on the map about the past, the kind of art I wanted to do a while ago, textile
based stuff maybe thinking about costume design. That was what I was into when I
first left high school but my tastes have changed and the things I like creating
is different. My present section is all about my work process the now and ive
included pictures of artists I like, work that ive made and how they all linked
together. Id say where I am now I know the kinds of things I like to make and
the artists that inspire me and the next few briefs we get are going to be all
about that.
