Evaluation of final 5 prints


WHAT I LIKE:
  • I think they work well as a set of prints; achieved through the running colour of blue throughout as well as a similar aesthetic - in terms of image content, texture and the simplicity of composition. 
  • The overlap of colour and textures create great visual interest.  
  • I feel fulfilled with the sophistication of process I used to create these final prints. 
  • The figurative aspects of each image create a sense of narrative and abstract otherworldliness, whilst in contrast the photographs inject some reality and transparency to the theme of each print. 
  • Even though the prints are abstract, there is an aspect of symbolism to the second colours and components within each image. I like how the meaning is not obvious but the images are all derived from individual concepts (not random). 
WHAT I DON'T LIKE:
  • I think through generating my screen print positives digitally I lost a sense of the handmade in my final prints. If I were to do this again I would experiment more with using chinograph, ink or other materials to create my screen print positives. 
  • I would have liked to achieve more effective colour overlap in my prints, to bring a 3rd colour into the mix - maybe I should have used a colour palette closer in tone?
