With two main weeks of researching over it was time to start producing some of my own work. I interviewed and did shoots with female family members and friends about their views on feminism which is great to get their views on as it helps to get an outsiders opinion on what your doing and I noticed how completely different they were to mine like a lot more personal and heartfelt, It really helped to shape the development of my working progress and left me not wanting to focus just on feminism from a males perspective but just to liberate women in general because they're amazing!
I went to an exhibition hosted by Lazy Oaf a British street-wear brand (of whom I'm thinking of using some of their stuff for my final piece shoot so thought it would be interesting to learn more about the brand) Who were unveiling their new collection with artist Patrick Sullivan, the collection comprised of prints of cartoon character Garfield which made a lightbulb go off in my head. taking inspo from it i took screenshots from cartoon show Daria who is a feminist so i created my own prints from Daria to make these 3 cool dresses which I would love to really create for my final piece shoot.
This week I found had been a real turning point into my theme based on what I what to keep looking at and researching with next week I shall move onto looking at feminism in more terms of popular culture rather than from a males perspective.
