Form Development and Psychogeography Seminar

I haven't had a sem dem for a while due to the blog and Progree Reviews, every is busy! The last one's I had were on the 15th. Form Development and Aspects of Psychogeography. Sounds fancy doesn't it? but it's actually quite simple.

For this we looked at ceramics. We were shown different ceramic pieces by many different artists. I made sure to write down every artist mentioned so I could look them up later, here's some of their work.

This is a way of researching. Basically a fancy term for walking around, 'drifting', and taking in your suroundings. During this seminar we were shown a series of artists works...
