Starting Residency 3 Work!

Found this artist Sophie Calle (thanks Jon Gitelson) and she made breakfast each morning for a week based on color. Check out the weeks eats here: http://crowincrowndotcom.wordpress.com/2011/02/23/the-chromatic-diet-sophie-calle/

I just received my new lens for my camera so I am continuing to put work together at this time. Playing around with backgrounds and color schemes. I am very excited. In the process of rescanning the film that was photographed last right before the residency to be able to get a better quality image from them because they were done with a little haste and need some color corrections. 

I have been busy writing a critical theory paper which was good for me to work on in trying to organize my thoughts and prepare myself for a thesis. Great practice but it all still makes me very nervous. There has been a lot of talk about installation for my final show....that excites me. 

Here are some newer negatives that were scanned before the residency... 


I just ordered some more color theory books and will be sticking my head into more if it soon. I will be working on creating backgrounds for these in a different form than just the corporate logo. I will be experimenting with color more within the grocery store branching out from the produce and entering into the packaged world. Stay tuned to see new backgrounds and how my sewing skills develop! :)
