Publish


Our publish project was to produce a publication in book format with a content and audience in mind. Our task was to print 10 copies of our publication so to work out where and how to print our book.
I chose to do my publication on Berlin, after visiting the city in January I was inspired to create a guide book. I decided to base the book on just one day in Berlin, focus on a lengthy walk that takes you around some of the best places to visit, without having to work out how to get everywhere on the u-bahn and s-bahn which was too confusing for me anyway.Lustgarten/Museum Sinsel


Zaughaus/ Historiches Museum



Bismarck Memorial in the Tiergarten
Gendenmarket

Text and image workshops.

Workshop with creating images that came from words. A task we did in groups to attempt to not create a generic clip art image. We all had to use black ink and the same size brush. With a list of words to draw from, here are some of my drawings.







Heart






glass










oil



wax/oil I can't quite remember
Urine.



Egg.




Workshop with image and text we did as a class in november. We used cut outs or rubber/ stamps/ stencils to make a image using text.I cut out words from a mixture of articles about sleep and dreaming and chose words that related in my head to allign underneath or to the side of the word. A bit of fun cutting and sticking workshop.

lambeth roundabout was at a stand still when a helicopter landed in the middle. All the buses stopped and everyone gathered round to wait for the helicopter to fly off. Especially amazing as I was on my way to the war museum to draw helicopters and airplanes.
