Evaluation

Overall this project has been a success because I have discovered an area of art that I was not familiar to before, I have looked at new artists that have inspired my own work and outcomes and at the later stage of my project I have discovered more about incorporating recycled materials into my own work and creating small models to show what I am intending to create at a later stage with scale models and using materials instead of the same materials as I will be using if I was making the real thing.

After completing my presentation to Nils Norman and my class I was given feedback to add to my piece to improve it. The feedback that I was was very different to what I was thinking about when I was creating my play area. One of the most important piece of advice I was given was to think about the bigger area and not just the selected area I have chosen. After getting that feedback I looked back at the original plan of my idea and decided to look at the photographs that I took when we went for our walk around the site.
I then have decided that I will improve my piece by making more that one and have lots of areas with one in. So then the idea would be for families to use this area in the day time, so that the children can play and adults can use the bench area to socialize.

This way I can make use of more mud from the mound in the site at the moment. The materials that I have used in my play area are still the right materials for the job, however I will have to look into the grip I would use at the top where the glass is and this could be slippery in the wet.

All of this feedback that I have been given I have thought about well and have altered in my revised Photoshopped image as you can see on my blog.
