How form and function will feature in your work?

• Due to the nature of interest towards the use of mix media, form and function may change through out design and making process as i experiment with the properties of the materials.
• Ceramic, wood, metal and fabric are the materials ill be researching and experimenting with. In the context of mix media, surface decoration and joining two materials through the technique of fusing, stitching, tying or knotting which the material and technique of this applications will dictates the function of the form however the function comes later for example stitching a fabric onto a ceramic to create a new form, from this process the full function of use of a ceramic containment losses some of it purpose due to the holes creative making the vessel in some extent if water poured onto it, water will leak out however the piece is still a functional but semi-functional it can be use to store objects (functional) however adding a separate piece (glass tube) for it to be fully functional is optional.

Aesthetic + Form

• Il be looking at traditional forms at the South east asian region. most of their forms are focused on domestic and utilitarian object. Taking this traditional forms which are consist of 3 dimensional shape e.g. cube, cones and sphere from this will be my starting point into experimentation process. In the aesthetic there will be the underlying of south eastern aesthetics of indigenous craft tradition with touches of Western influences of contemporary aesthetic.

Market

• The target market im interested are customers who are interested in contemporary handmade objects ranges of materials e.g. ceramic, wood, metal and has an indigenous craft aesthetic with product aesthetic like droog. Online store the Kindcraft, collection of local artists and global from traditional to contemporary and similar to Etsy a good way to reach customer globally. Because the nature of style im interested in which inspired by craft and culture, both of the online company i believe will be interested at my work.
• Within the a gallery shop London base interior designers "19 Greek street" whose style are eccentric, colourful and eclectic, visionary, finely crafted and experimental design. For an international market Droog design and design by hive are interesting through their identity of experimentation and multidisciplinary discipline somehow a plan in the future for licensing design.
• After fourth year a technician Internship within a ceramic workshops, in an engaging environment is something im considering in the future around Scotland. Joining a studio space along side ceramist and multidisciplinary designer from this, im interested in collaborative projects locally and the environment of London craft. As a progress the idea having my own shop gallery along side creative group.
