Summary

Final work

Hii, I'm Mimi. My approach to my work is entirely instinctual, not a lot of planning happens during my process, which makes the found materials I work with so exciting. Feeling comes to the forefront of the process, structure and particularly colour, marrying and forcing things is a constant thought and importance. Circularity, reusing what I find, manipulating and moulding strangeness out of 'rubbish' and rigidity, into softer pockets of substance.

In September, I'll be attending Slade School of Fine Art for BA Fine Art.

'Scrapper' surrounds the cycles of industrialised materials. A reflection on english industrious environments, the architecture we place ourselves in, and our fetishisation of newness . Embodying a scrapper, taking these found materials into my own pockets of collated substance , seeking beauty in what has been given a forced finality . People don't like the sight of rubbish, there's a great sense of dismissal in acknowledging our environmental wrongdoing in our everyday lives - our acknowledgement is never a constant. I am continuously seeking out space to provide a constant. Deconstructing and reforming substance provides a circularity. It gives me agency, I don't have to renounce my materialism.
