This sketchbook I decided to do for the exhibition was so I could create textural pieces to not only experiment but also to have an interesting way to present my actual essay rather than in blocks of writing on my presentation boards. This is a work in progress book and won't be finished till I am 100% happy with my essay, this is among other things such as personal photos and anxiety tests that they make you take before you have CBT (cognitive behavioural therapy.) I am super happy with how this book has turned out so far as I wanted to create an unusual yet personal way to view my essay. I also feel that this book is beneficial as it has allowed me to experiment with fabric something which I know I have been interested in texture wise but needed a lead into it and this book has provided that lead.
This page I feel worked the best out of all of them as it not only brings together all my experiments and refining them that I had practised throughout my personal investigation. The subtlety of all the multiple textures of the fabric combined with the subtle and fragile melted sellotape letting you see the textures underneath.
The page displayed on the right didn't work as well as the other ones I feel due to the fact that the subtlety is destroyed with how heavy handed I was with the ink and it takes away from not only my essay but all the subtle other features in the piece such as the sewing and the melted essay itself.
