Final Major Project – 1:2:1 Tutorial with Wendy McMurdo – 31st October 2018

Summary:

FMPP Feedback – 

• My FMPP was illustrated with a good range of appropriate references.
• I need to consider how DNA could be visualised/recorded/depicted. How I could harvest my own DNA.
• Am I incorporating my DNA with my own archival imagery
• The historical past mentioned in my FMPP is interesting.
• Perhaps think about working on Typologies.

What I need to do with my work – 

My work is fragmented – I must do more research.

What is my work about? Is it DNA, Identity, Uniqueness (Does this link to ethnicity or is this unlinked?

Social Context / Political Context.

Revealing something hidden

Memory ( this is a major area for my research)

Find my links 

• Family
• Memory
• Dementia Research – Alzheimer’s Society.

Research to follow up:

Look at the Centre for Life – DNA discoveries

Hew Locke – Monuments

Stephen Gill – Best Before End

Mark Quinn – Blood Cubes, DNA, Family Portrait – this could be very important to my current path.
