The feedback from my critique was very positive! I think everyone understood my source material and inspiration, and everyone loved the photos.
I also feel good about how I talked about the work while I was presenting. I feel like it was very logical to follow and everyone understood what I was trying to say, which is something I have always struggled with (so I’m pretty proud).
Cato suggested that the visual layout of my presentation needed to be a bit more cohesive. He said that there were some visuals I should have carried out on every page (which I understand honestly) to make it more easily readable.
One thing we talked about that was interesting was the difference between wearable art and marketable fashion. I feel like a lot of the stuff I make is more wearable art geared at communicating a theme or opinion, and in the future it may be interesting to challenge myself to make a more ready-to-wear version of my work.
I’m pretty pleased with this project and how it turned out. I feel like l could have pushed it to an even further level if I wasn’t also focusing on my MA application, but overall I’m pretty happy and I have ideas about where I want to go in the future.
