I haven't blogged in so long. I am a blogging failure. This blog will end up on the virtual trash heap of blogs that no one ever tended to or cared about.
Self-hatred now out of the way, I'm trying to recharge my enthusiasm for this project and make sense of it to myself. Making sense of it will mean putting it into coherent written form. I'm semi on the way....
Artist Statement!
Poems are expressions of common experience, told from unique perspectives. We read and absorb the words, and, if they resonate with us deeply enough, we expand upon them and make the poem our own, coloring it with our own experiences and associations. My degree project will use my visual communication skills to do this very thing: reinterpret a poem as an interactive visual experience, using my own creative filter and unique imagery in a way that remains deeply faithful to the spirit of the original material. This simultaneously echoes the process of making, interpreting and remaking meaning that is so essential to graphic design.
