Inspiration: a functional approach to creative practice.

PhD thesis in Art, Design & Media, by Gil Dekel.

 

9.1 Artistic choices

All actions undertaken focused on trying to externalise inner thoughts and presence, through a dialogue between the internal image and the external. All actions centred around the notion of the self, illustrated by a use of figures in all works.

This section will describe the artistic choices that assisted in my own reflections and evolution of my thinking, and how they helped to engage the public to draw out their own inspiration. Through choices of colours, shapes, line, text, movement, and Self, I will indicate three stages, which will be called Actions1 – individual; Actions2 – individual in a group; and Actions3 – collective individuals.
