Winter break and Week 13

Reflection of December Consultation:
-Multiple facets of project work on their own, but not as a whole.
-High risk of failure when depending on recipients to participate.
-Confusion of the theme of the project. Is it secrets, place, communication?
-Place is the most exciting for me.
-What are the non-negotiables? Paper mechanics and craft.
-Excited to work on the theme of place, but can only think of cabinet like structures.
-Don't know what would be effective.


I spent my time researching paper artists and following them on twitter.
I started to map out what I could do with both place and revealing.
