Initially going into the more analogue, I had decided that I wanted my final outcome to be an installation with 2 mirrors next to each other on a wall, with prints from the lino blocks I would carve on the reflective part. I then moved on to wanting to do something with mirror shards hanging from an elevated platform with these prints instead, making it more fragmented.
As such, I got a lot of good feedback from my tutorials- I brought in my initial lino experiments and ideas about the installation. I was encouraged to keep going, carve as many blocks of lino as I could, and play with composing each character’s print on a multitude of objects to create a layered visual narrative. I was encouraged especially to work with 3d objects. Thanks to this feedback, I was able to sit on the feedback and better refine my idea- instead of working with only mirrors, I began to experiment with different surfaces and ways to bring my desired outcome to life.
