Richard Wentworth Making do and getting by





In my theory essay I discussed the topic of the 'Everyday'. One of my Artist I was investigating was Richard Wentworth and his works labelled "Making do and getting by"and Thoughtless Act" by Jane Fulton Suri through an article called parallel Universes and core77 . In Richard Wentworths work they say  " These images capture the minutiae we pay little attention to—images which nonetheless rely on the social context from which they are culled and through which they are analysed for their real meanings." What I took away from this Quote was this idea of a presentation of the everyday we take for granted or are unaware of the environment around us i and when a simple change occurs within that environment how we realise how important that environment is . The other thing that i got out of this article was this idea of documenting or presenting  a subconscious engagement   we have with the world around us and highlighting the human intervention that takes part in .


These are some of the key ideas in my drawing practice and I have developed it and added my own ideas .
