To start thinking about our second year FMP ideas, we were asked to come up with 2 ideas and then decide our favourite/idea with the most potential to take forward and create a project around this.
IDEA 1
'Anxieties of space' - working title
What makes us feel comfortable or uncomfortable? What objects, environments, people or place help to create a sense of ‘home comforts’.
Epidemic of anxiety within our generation - could help to normalise and tackle these issues and help us find out what we can do to minimise these feelings.
Potential outcomes
A book filled with images of these objects or things/places/actions which make people feel better when they are anxious
Use different printing techniques/mediums and papers to represent some sort of texture and personality within the pages.
Objects will be anonymous and curated aesthetically rather than with an order or categorisation.
