Introductory Session Task

What was the last image, object or artefact that excited you? How, why & where did you encounter it?

The last image I see was old photo of Bristol Park Street. I felt this photo very interesting because it changed a lot if you compare to Bristol today. Some building might look the same but the thing I really like is University Of Bristol building because since that day in the picture to today, it's still look the same and it's look standout as well. I saw this photo in one pub & restaurant in Knowle West. After my I had a football match and we went to that pub for team talk and I saw this photo on their wall, which is I found it very interesting to look at Bristol history.

What excites you about your chosen area of Creative Practice?

I think this is a new experience for me because I never come across to this area before. But when I came in to this Creative Practice at Filton Wise campus I felt it's more organized compare to another college or university and also the facility in this college are modern and new. It make me feel comfortable to be here.

Why have you chosen to study it further?

I decided to study further because I feel like what have learn isn't enough. I like to gather more experience in graphic design. Also it very important to me to get a degree because back in my country it is very difficult to get a job without a degree.

What do you hope to achieve at the end of the 2 years? What would you like to be doing?

I'll do my best in this 2 years. I will produce the best of my work and hope to get good results. Also gather experience as much as I can. I like to study further my third year at UWE and go back to my country and work as a graphic designer.

What sorts of things have you made work or written about or researched specifically before? e.g are you interested in a particular genre, issue, subculture etc?

I did ND Graphic Design last year and I really like doing logo design because it is very interesting and everywhere need logo, some logo are looks interesting and some are not. Also when I did my ND in graphic design I did some logo design for Bristol Zoo and Jewellery shop which I really enjoy it.

What excites you now?

I still think logo design is excite me the most and also I quite interest in photography as well.

What sorts of arts, design, performance, media, events etc do you go & see, or take part in?

I went to see Banksy couple month ago and I like it a lot. I think his work are different from other artist because he always come up with something opposite to other artist does, and his idea was amazing as well. I like the one when a farmer was sitting down and smoking outside the frame.

What do you read? What feeds your interests?

I don't really read anything particular, but sometime when I see nice images or piece of work on the cover of book or magazine, I would look at it and read it. I also interesting in football, so sometime I read football magazine. In football magazine sometime gives you ideas and nice graphic images as well.
