yellow week

As a group we created a print by sticking different materials and nediums to a piece of cardboard taking into mind the different textures of the fruit that we had picked therefore trying to match the materials texture to the of the fruits/vegatable. Once assembled we left to dry and then added colour with a roller and coloured paints. 

Our group decided to make a one colour print to draw attention to the different texture we had created. This worked well because it shows all the print although a dull piece it somehow still remains a eye Catching piece. 

For this print we observed the fruit and veg carefully trying to pick up the colours. This was best print we did as the lilac colour and the randomly swirled lines of the red cabbage contrasts with the vibrant, bold and definite positioned yellow pepper.

Yellow week- hybrid project

Yellow week

Twice during each academic year students take part in an off timetable week-long project. The weeks are called 'Yellow Weeks' and students are encouraged to cooperate and work with students from different departments and courses, with the aim to produce outcomes that are shown to an audience at the end of the week. 

During the first Yellow Week of the current academic year, students from our Creative Careers Subsidiary Diploma in Art & Design cooperated with student from the Specialist Careers Extended Diploma in Art & Design. The theme of the week-long activity was 'Hybrid'. Each group of students used different kinds of animals as their inspiration, which they combined to produce their own hybrid species. The week was concluded in an improvised performance in the lecture theatre and a parade through the college that attracted a lot of attention.
