Rationale

The selected briefs encompass an industry area or format that I'm interested in, are a way for me to push my practice further, as well as being a means for me to develop my portfolio by the end of the year. Although the work may change direction along the way, there is definitely a basis in publishing and DIY publications, as well as print and even events in some senses.

The briefs have been selected with the intention of playing with the content (themes, ideas), format (publication, print, exhibition...), and context (live brief, portfolio, public viewing) of each of the projects and their outcomes. I want to see what happens when I take an idea and expand upon each of these three aspects.

For example with my collage experiments, my goal is to turn them into a book, however I'd like to see how the content can be applied to an exhibition; what would be introduced to make it more interesting for that context?
