LO5: Critical Analysis:

Screen walk with Antonio Roberts

April 25, 2021April 27, 2021 / Paul Lindsay / Leave a comment

I enjoyed this artists talk as his work is in an area that I find interesting and have experimented with similar software for glitching images and audio tracks. A unique aspect is how he is pushing the boundaries of copyright and remixing of content. By taking well-known brand logos and re-sampling it multiple times at … Continue reading Screen walk with Antonio Roberts

Wim Delvoye – Pigs

April 19, 2021April 27, 2021 / Paul Lindsay / Leave a comment

Wim Delvoye is no stranger to controversial artworks, and his tattooed pigs are no exception. When he started tattooing pigs in 1997, setting up a farm outside of Beijing to avoid any regulatory hassles, he was criticized in the art-world. There is a certain hypocrisy here in that it's ok to factory farm pigs for … Continue reading Wim Delvoye – Pigs

Christien Meindertsma – Pig 05049

April 17, 2021April 27, 2021 / Paul Lindsay / Leave a comment

The book 'PIG 05049' describes the numerous consumer products derived from the different parts of a pig. While we typically consider that the Pig is primarily a source of food and little else, this book dispels that idea and gives some insight into just how far the meat industry pervades into every aspect of our … Continue reading Christien Meindertsma – Pig 05049

Week 9 – Critical Review of Practice

March 21, 2021April 27, 2021 / Paul Lindsay / Leave a comment

This was a very useful exercise in both receiving and providing feedback, although it took a lot of time and week 8 study still needs some catching up. This was a further opportunity to have more eyes on my work to date and to see whether it is developing in line with intentions. Some issues … Continue reading Week 9 – Critical Review of Practice

Week 8 – Responses & Responsibilities

March 20, 2021April 27, 2021 / Paul Lindsay / Leave a comment

Vietnam, Philip Jones Griffiths, 1967 This week's topic is one of the first that touches on some of the issues I have been thinking about in my work. With newsfeeds and social media pumping out an almost endless stream of what many would consider shocking material it is difficult to sift out those images that … Continue reading Week 8 – Responses & Responsibilities

Week 7 – A sea of images

March 13, 2021April 27, 2021 / Paul Lindsay / Leave a comment

This week the National Geographic magazine was a central topic which generated quite some varied dialog. I can recall my grandfather having an enormous collection of NG that must have gone back decades. I spent countless hours leafing through them, taking in all the strange and exotic people and places. I certainly did not at … Continue reading Week 7 – A sea of images

Abstract Polaroids

March 9, 2021April 27, 2021 / Paul Lindsay / Leave a comment

Saw these on Reddit and think they are great. I really like the work of Diasuke Yokata and how he chemically manipulates old color plates to create abstract damaged leaking colours. This is similar on a smaller scale, colours are not quite so vivid and the chemical process seems different but the results are unique. … Continue reading Abstract Polaroids

Week 5 – Gazing at photographs

March 4, 2021April 27, 2021 / Paul Lindsay / Leave a comment

Merry Alperns project 'Dirty Windows' and her voyeuristic vigil perched just out of sight above a toilet window from a sex club raises a multitude of questions on the gaze and where are the limits, if there are any limits at all on intruding on others. The grainy black and white shots capture personal moments … Continue reading Week 5 – Gazing at photographs

Week 4 – Into the image World

February 19, 2021April 27, 2021 / Paul Lindsay / Leave a comment

I have spent the last couple of weeks reading further into the encoding/decoding of visual messages and how text is used to orientate or strengthen the dominant reading. Something I keep coming back to is the idea of unstorys. The only definition which seems to come close to describing this is 'a story which lacks the … Continue reading Week 4 – Into the image World

Week 3 -Reflection

February 13, 2021April 27, 2021 / Paul Lindsay / Leave a comment

I first saw the work of Ana Barrado illustrating a book of quotes from J. G. Ballard published by Re/Search. Unfortunately, I have been unable to track down much about her work or intent other than a few blog posts and references to a photobook published in the 90s. Memories of the Future Rockets, Vintage … Continue reading Week 3 -Reflection
