Hello to everyone that is reading this! 

This blog will be used to show the transition from my final year of study at the University of Cumbria into working life. It will also discuss ideas around my Professional Development, the end of year Degree Show and just following me on my journey for this final portion.

It will also be a place to share people, places, thoughts and ideas I have had over the course of the time I have been here. I would also like to try and keep this active after my time at University.

The posts will be arranged in date order, with an 'Archive' section to find older blog posts should you miss one. I will also be adding 'Keywords' to the posts to help keep everything neat and ordered. If you do have any  questions, or would like to know any more about anything talked about in these posts, feel free to send me a message on my Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thevisualsofjoe/ or just send an email to [email protected]

Enjoy learning and reading about my ideas!

Research: Installation Methods

February 09, 2019  •  Leave a Comment
We had an interesting lecture on 8th February discussing the various, intricate ways one can display their work on the wall. With the wall 'in play' as it were, it gives a whole new meaning to if the photo was on a computer screen or on a website. It is physical, we can go up close to it and examine it corner to corner. For my personal project, I d...

Second Meeting: Open Format

February 01, 2019  •  Leave a Comment
The second meeting for the Degree Show saw many loose ends getting tied up, including probably the most important one: the name of the show. We came up with two names and then cast a vote. The first one being 'Open Format' and the second one 'Light Leaks'. The decision was to go with Open Format. It was largely based on the fact that Open Format so...

Displaying my work

January 31, 2019  •  Leave a Comment
While I and my peers have been encouraged to experiment with how we display our work for the upcoming Degree Show, I felt it would be fitting for my photos to be presented in a more classical way. This would fit in with the theme and also I feel it is the best way to show off the aspect of 'scale' to the viewer. I am looking to print my photos A1,...

Research into Project

January 30, 2019  •  Leave a Comment
Research is something I find enjoyable but at times challenging. This is because I sometimes feel that I try to replicate accurately and this is not always the best plan. The research for my FMP centers around the human element or a figure within an interior or, on a rare occasion, exterior setting. This research will allow me to develop my resulti...

First photos for FMP

January 26, 2019  •  Leave a Comment
I didn't know decisively what to do for my FMP, so I knew I had two ideas in my head that I could potentially explore. The first idea was around the idea of isolation and isolated figures. I felt this would be quite interesting because of how people interact with the space. The other idea was around people within architectural spaces and how they i...

First Meeting for Degree Show

January 25, 2019  •  Leave a Comment
25th January 2019 After the lecture, we arranged an informal gathering which would allow us to start dissecting the Degree Show and the many parts to it. We came to a decision that there would be four groups that would make up the Degree Show: Design, Marketing, Organisation and Fundraising. Each of these areas has subcategories within them. Every...
