My Journey Monday 27th

To begin with I was confused with the "Journey" brief, as the idea of the journey could be the concept of the Journey as a metaphor or literal. Here are some of the ideas I came up with:

1. Journey of the seasons.
2. The process of product design.
3. The process of a Designers career.
4. The process of everyday life, from this point I researched into the work of Tom Judd, a lot of his painting are of everyday life and scenes.
5. Journey on a train to a unplanned place, that you have never been to before.
6. A train journey to a friend or family member that you have taken before.

I think I may take the approach of a train journey that I have taken before and implement everyday life, scenes that I see whilst on the train, maps, posters, conversations overheard on the train and artifacts collected throughout the journey.

The work of Tom Judd may influence me in my future work. His work will help me use other techniques in my design work. He still uses traditional methods like oil and collage, but incorporates modern methods like Photoshop and Illustrator.
