artsit talk Estelle pemberton

I like Estelles work because i think shes a great designer when she makes purse. She makes Persis from recycled thing like old close and butten. i also like the other stuff apart from Persis that she has made like candle shades, remade her shoes and close out of silk scarfs. I wondered how she put together the frame and the pocket part. She sead to create the inside pocket first then the outside pocket for the purse.

Estelle is also a made a chandelier out of a dress for a fashion runway witch i thought was nice designed until she sead that they didn't wont to go with so she had leave aside. She says that she still got it sitting in her workshop.

four finished pages.

Looking back at how i started my zine i was not quite shoe where to start at first, but as the weeks went on i got to do workshop's that was given like page layouts, stenciling, photoshop, illustrator, indesinge and putting the pages together. In my zine i have used illustrator, indesinge and also hand drew my pages because in illustrator i find it easy to use to create my A5 pages like the hulk throwing away his spray can after finishing his tagging or graffiti on a wall.

I also drew some parts in my zine witch i am proud of because that's what i like doing in my spear time is drawing. The pages that i drew by hand is Superman holding a spray can with a piece of graffiti in the background and Captain America,s shield cutting red skull head off witch i think is violent but in funny way.

 Also in illustrator i created my cover page, the tittle is called (hello my name is Hemi). I layed out superhero characters like Superman, Wolverine, Hulk and Batman and then pasted a hello sticker on the top because its a graffiti and characters from comics combined.
 So over the past few weeks i have learnt bits and piece's to put together as one in my zine. The way I'm putting my zine together is i' going to sow my zine together.

My four pages from my zine.





The idea that i'm going with is a combination of graffiti artwork and characters from comic books like DC and Marvel. Because i like the two i thought i'l put them together in my zine.

For the quotes idea i thought i'l go with the Alice in Wonderland quotes because i think they are kinda funny to me and the quotes is also a inspiration as well because i like the way the actors use the quotes in the movie, so i thought i'l put them together and try come up with something in my zine.

An example that i'm using for quotes in zine from Alice in Wonderland are (Off with your head and down with the bloody red queen. Those quotes are the ones that i mostly because of how it's presented in the movie.

seraphine pick


I watched a Seraphine Pick dvd and i thought her work is amazing but weird. Because of this one painting that she painted was kind of freaky its called the Goya painting. I think that the Goya painting freaky because Seraphine painted it from her childhood memory. The painting is about a devil or demon eating children witch i think is sick. But i also like her other work compered to the Goya painting because i like the way she references pictures from from all over place like if she likes something that she see's shel take a photo of the image and download it to her computer then print it out and use it for her paintings.

barbara kruger

Barbara Kruger try's to engage the concept of power through text and image, using only three colours, which is red gray and black. She believes everybody got answers but is more interested in questions, question that provoke doubt. Doubt tempers belief with sanity in her work. I found the reading that we did in class interesting and challenging because of the massive words that she had quoted in the reading.

PowerPoint By Frances.

Power point on (18/07/11) by Frances was an inspirational because it got me thinking on how to start my zine and also what type of subject to use for my zine. I have not come up with an idea for my zine. In the PowerPoint Frances was saying that books used to be published by hand and how fonts changed though out the years like, Frances say, that bubble writing was popular in the 70s. I think that is true seeing it way back in the dark ages time calligraphy or old english was used most of the time.

Text and Image

I am using these three examples because i think that they interesting like this image of this guy it has text writing on his face. I think its a weird image but also interesting to look at. The grenade bomb i think its funny how the key bard forms the shape of the grenade.  I like the Giraffe and the elephant fighting over the job singe thinking that they acting like a bunch of animals just for a job. This guy looks like a zombi with words sticking out of his face but it also looks like a Van Gulf painting.
