The objective of my research is to develop a body of work for exhibition based on an examination of the ways that corporate space, as exemplified by the foyers and conference rooms of contemporary corporate offices, reflect societal anxieties about wealth and power. These works will draw on the history of painting, with particular reference to 17th century Dutch still life painting, as a framework within which to conduct the exploration of contemporary space.

This paper delves into the realms of tragedy, memory and representation. Drawing upon the phenomenon of the Phantom Limb and extending it towards a theory of Phantom Bodies, various artworks - literary, theatrical and visual - are examined. After the conflagration of the terrorist attack, how are these absences grieved over and remembered through artistic representation? The essay examines this question by positioning itself amongst the scarred landscapes of post-September 11 New York and suicide bombings in Israel (2000-2006).

3D animation software is extensively used to create graphics for special effects sequences in live-action films, in animated feature film production and for the generation of computer games and virtual reality content. It is a commonly held view within the computer graphics community that 3D animation software is ―just another tool‖ for self-expression. This research questions that view by examining the inherent nature of the tool itself. In doing so, some of the philosophical assumptions embedded in the design of the new digital tool are revealed.

This research is a visual inquiry into the fashions in 20th century kimono in which I have tried to take into account meaning and interpretation rather than a simple chronology of change. There is minimal information in English about kimono fashions during the 20th century, which has led to the assumption that kimono is now a traditional form of dress and not subject to style change.

The aim of this project "Tessellation: exploring pathways and partitions" is to explore visual pathways within a series of tessellated art works. The term ‘visual pathway’ may in this case extend to include disruption of space and surface, the partitioning of space and surface, as well as the exploration of various pathways that flow through space and surface.

The main aims of the research "Self-surveillance: Performing the plurality of my feminine experience of self" were to establish a solo practice and create performative artworks that made visible aspects of my lived experience. The research was driven by an inquiry into the ways an expanded performance practice could capture the plurality of a feminine experience of self.

This research project will investigate how combining systems of tessellation1 , modularity2 and seriality3 can be utilised with a specific method of paper staining to explore visual pathways within an artwork. A serial system4 of modular tessellation will be implemented, whereby different “sets” of oil-and-pigment soaked paper modules will be constructed and formed into various configurations.

Nghệ thuật Thị giác (Visual Arts), với đa số người Việt Nam, được hiểu là thế giới của những Dali, Picasso v.v… nói chung, là thế giới của những cái gì hết sức “cao sang”, “siêu phàm”, không can dự gì đến cuộc sống của mình-biết cũng được, không biết cũng chẳng sao. Oái oăm là ngay cả những người đang điều hành các thiết chế văn hóa-nghệ thuật ở Việt Nam, dường như cũng đang hiểu vấn đề theo kiểu như vậy....

Although the age-old art of pencil drawing is the basic foundation of all the visual arts, its elemental beauty allows it to stand on its own. And pencil art is amazingly versatile—it can range from simple, unshaded contour line drawings to complex, fully rendered compositions with a complete range of tonal values. The projects in this book are taken from some of the most popular drawing books in Walter Foster's How to Draw and Paint Series. And because all the successful artists featured in this book have developed their own special approach to drawing, there are countless lessons to be...

Hội họa và âm nhạc là hai bộ môn nghệ thuật lâu đời nhất của loài người. Không biết âm nhạc có trước – mà còn tùy định nghĩa – hay hội họa có trước, nhưng ngay khi con người còn ăn lông ở lỗ đã vẽ những hình tượng trong hang động, dù là với mục đích gì. Ngày nay nhiều bộ môn khác ra đời đặc biệt các bộ môn hiển thị (Visual Arts) như nhiếp ảnh, điện ảnh cũng vẫn không làm cho hội họa mai một. Ngay về hội họa và chỉ trên góc cạnh kỹ...
