Some events that take place within Leeds' public spaces include, but are not limited to:
- Carnivals.
- Concerts.
- Markets.
- Exhibitions.
- Parades.
- Sports Events.
- Protests.
- Happenings.
- Flash Mobs.
The celebratory print should reflect the identity and character of the city, and that which has shaped it. The event that informs the print can have been organised or impromptu, but ultimately must be represented positively.
Considerations
Visual responses should be considered both literally and laterally, bringing together text and image. The techniques and processes chosen should be selected considering suitability in their representation of the given subject and their potentials to reflect, reinforce and enhance visual content.
Mandatory Requirements
Analogue A3 stock print, celebratory in nature, and suitable for public viewing.
A minimum of 5 x A3 design boards/design sheets (submitted as PDFs) articulating the selected research development, resolution and contextualisation of your work.
Deadlines
Physical Print Deadline / Interim Submission: 24th APRIL 2017 (11 weeks)
Module Submission: 18th MAY 2017 (14 weeks)
Interpretation
The prospect of producing an A3 traditional print in celebration of Leeds, its history and the events that have shaped it immediately excites me. With family connections to Leeds, it's a city I loved before coming to university here, and therefore being supplied with an outlet to celebrate it is a prospect I look forward to. As a city, Leeds is ever changing, ever developing and expanding. In the last decade alone the city has transformed with the addition of the Trinity shopping centre and Victoria Gate, gaining new-found recognition as the retail destination of the North. Equally as important as these new editions are the more historic moments captured by the city, and choosing between the recent additions and events of the past I anticipate will initially be a hard decision when establishing the print's context/visual content. The analogue methodology of creating the print provides me with the opportunity to showcase my favourability towards hand-crafted work with attention to detail, tactile quality and finishing.
