Further Notes
Considered using Humber Street Sesh as another collective // collaboration to look at. Involvement of organisers, artists and musicians. However this is very different to other examples.
South Korean Tattooists, Hacienda Club, Humber Street Sesh; all very different collectives with different aims and ways of working, what connects them all? PASSION.
Does creative passion bring people together; is this what I want to investigate? How do illustrators purpose and function change in each of these instances? What is their 'super power'? What do illustrators bring to collectives? Can illustrators say powerful things? (YES!!!)
Within collectives is illustration work elevated and more powerful? Artistic integrity VS role in a collective. Do collectives allow illustrators more creative freedom or do they stunt creative growth and expression?
Moving Forward
A LOT of questions at this point. Am I getting closer to a theme or over expanding it?
I feel a little lost in terms of research as I still feel my question and theme are very vague, I haven't nailed down a specific area I want to investigate and it's holding me back at this point. I don't really want to start trying to research all of these avenues as it'll get even more complex than it currently is.
Perhaps I need to sit down and refocus my intentions. My interest in the subject matter is waning as I don't really know what I'm trying to find out anymore.
