Here's a little of what I wrote to frame the presentation of the portfolios:What types of works and which pieces give an accurate sense of your development, challenges, and successes over the quarter? Are there benchmark or breakthrough works that inform the way you work now? Is there a narrative that runs through the works? Your portfolio should reveal –in visual terms—your experiences during this time. It may also be helpful to consider the portfolio as a visual equivalent to a self-evaluation; how do the two projects reflect one another? How does the portfolio provide a visual equivalent to the ways that you perhaps describe your work in conversation or writing?
Are there specific tools, techniques, concepts that are emerging in your practice? What content links the pieces you’ve chosen? Are there formal/compositional attributes they share? How are they arranged together? Are there specific subjects that you find yourself returning to, or questioning repeatedly? Do you approach new problems in a systematic way and is your process evident to a viewer?
We've been meeting for over a month now, and looking at ways to integrate drawing into your everyday life; you're making drawings in class, on the phone, following people, at home, and at school. How can a portfolio give a viewer a sense of you interests, and how you work? What does six or seven weeks of production look like?
And, I *THINK* I've posted images of everyone's portfolio, but if you don't see your work here, please let me know and I'll try and find additional images. Thanks.
