After
doing the arrivals task it got me thinking about how I could develop my ideas
from this. I looked at arriving at New York it was overwhelming and had a big
impact on the way I think about things and look at things.
After
doing the arrivals task it got me thinking about how I could develop my ideas
from this. I looked at arriving at New York it was overwhelming and had a big
impact on the way I think about things and look at things.
It got me
thinking about what I really know about the culture of this city, all I ever
really knew was that it was an amazing city and a very big one, full of excitement,
energy and inspiration. Then I started thinking about Manchester, the brief is
about old school/ new school. I lived in this city and again knew little about
it.
I was
curious to find out about this city and see what I could uncover; attending
several talks by speakers such as DJ David Haslam and Illustrator Adam Dant
opened my eyes to the culture of this great city.
I started
thinking about the idea of uncovering things from buildings and breaking up
dimensions of a city. When walking around New York there was so many buildings that
surrounded me but I never really thought about what went on inside the building
or what they looked like. They all looked so similar from the outside but what
did the interior of the buildings look like?
I found a
connection between New York and Manchester and how both cities have so many
huge buildings which surround us and small streets coming off from every direction.
I started
taking photographs and exploring the streets of the Northern Quarter and hidden
cracks in the small alleys and walls to see what I could uncover.
