I\u2019m trying to come up with an MA FA project that will suit my talents (!) and experience, but will stretch me too. It should be based on photography, my strength, but I doubt if just pretty landscapes or fine art portraits\/nudes would fit the bill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
SOME THEME IDEAS<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n- Expand some of my science areas, a) renewable energy, b) climate change and c) the environment. Use photography to go beyond documentation \u2013 documentation would be fine if the images were to to characterize a place over time, but the time scale of an MA project is too short.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Photography plus another art form (ceramics, glass, writing). This could become a hybrid composite of photography of photography, watercolours, abstract, print, but I still nee a viable topic to represent.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Some combination of landscapes\/seascapes, dogs, living in the moment, anxiety, mental health, stress relief, wellness.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Abstract photography\/ multiple exposures\/ composites\/hybrid (with\/without paining or drawing. Still needs a theme.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
ADVICE<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
I hope I will be able to get advice from the staff on selecting a theme. I\u2019ve no idea about what\u2019s acceptable, which is quite ironic since I\u2019ve been a tutor\/supervisor and examiner of MSc students for several years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It would be great too to find inspiration from my fellow students who may have more of an artistic background and\/or experience. Is there space for collaboration?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
