With a fresh take on Murakami and a renewed sense of creative buzz I decided I needed to start locking down my ideas for final print proposals. To kick this process off I made another mind map using motifs of Murakami's work to break things down into possible avenues to represent through my final prints.
The only problem with this process was I began over-complicating what I wanted the prints to represent and how they'd work as a collective. Realistically I think I was trying to communicate too much and therefore loosing the authenticity of the original pieces. Rather than get too caught up in the ideas however I decided to push on visually with a rough // interchangeable theme for each print. I felt it was more important to start figuring out compositions // problem solving through image making rather than writing out possible solutions.
Drawing through problems is very important and can often help in deciding what will // won't work in a piece!! There have been points in this module so far I feel I've spent too long worrying over ideas and not enough time getting them onto paper to see if they worked so that's what I started doing here.
The more I drew out the compositions the easier it was to pick out which ones worked and which ones didn't. I'm still a little unsure about which print process I will use on my final prints but I'm hoping the following print workshops will help me decide.
