Family memories
I have included this collaboration of edited images as a way or presenting a memory fading away. I had the idea of showing how memories fade away through fading photographs colours. This idea I found to be to generic to use as my final idea. However I really feel this is a great symbolic way to show how memories fade. This image for me shows memory loss. Although i myself have no brain damage or other memory condition due to my young age at the time this photo was taken i have no recollection of memory of the event.
Memory Loss link to sleep
Brain scans reveal that the mammillary bodies, shown in box and circled, of a sleep apnea patient (right) are smaller than those of a healthy control subject (left).(U.C.L.A./Harper Lab)
The part of the brain that stores memory appears to shrink in people with sleep apnea, adding further evidence that the sleep and breathing disorder is a serious health threat.
'“Our findings demonstrate that impaired breathing during sleep can lead to a serious brain injury that disrupts memory and thinking,” said principal investigator Ronald Harper, professor of neurobiology at the David Geffen School of Medicine at U.C.L.A. The data appear in the June 27 issue of the journal Neuroscience Letters.'

Sally Mann Photography
I have included this image as a form of documentation as i feel that this work is a perfect example of capturing a memory and a moment in time. This photograph could be used in the form of Un creativity. Because it is a photograph it is reproducible and therefore can be appropriated, recontextulised, remade and repurposed. I love Sally Mann’s works as they are so real to me. They represent a personal memory and important moment in time. For her this is capturing her children. In this particular image we see how she has staged a photo where her daughter in the centre takes the vocal position. Through wearing a pearl necklace and earrings we see Sally Mann making a comment on society and how children are being made to grow up fast. This is important as memories can have deep meaning behind them.
from the course outline i feel the sentence challenge ideas around practice and creativity. Is very important as well as the question How can we use research to develop our conceptual thinking through studio practice?
In my work i hope to challenge ideas and create a unique work that is creative and uses interesting mediums.

I like this image as it shows a window into the brain. I think the symbol of the window us very powerful as it gives a snapshot into the thoughts o this persons.
Art Work "Recollect" Sketch on paper
by Brian Fernandes Halloran
" For decades, scientists have been developing an understanding of memory as a workable medium. Psychologist Elizabeth Loftus proposed a widely accepted paradigm called the "misinformation effect" in which information, after an event has occurred, dictates how that event is (mis)remembered. Her work shows that memories are pieced together, often incorrectly, and corrupted with whatever new information we have at hand." Brian Fernandes Hallora
This form of documentation shows the process of a painting. The abstract painting depicts the emotions from a memory coming back to me. The dashes of white represent the parts of the memory that are still blank representing memory loss. I have used yellows to represent the start of the memory being clear and happy, it slowly gets darker showing the memory slipping away and being harder to grasp.
I have employed alien methods in this art making practise. I have not created a abstract piece of art before to represent emotions or a memory. Through using alien methods i found that i was able to embrace this new way of art making and was able to step away from my usual perfectionist ways. I enjoyed creating thick uneven strokes. The thick strokes painted uneven and jagged creates a sense of tension and anger in a way. Showing the pain of not remembering memories.
Memory-loss woman 'bewildered' by missing 20 years
"When Kay Delaney looks in the mirror, she does not recognise the woman staring back at her.
The wrinkles and the greying hair should not be there. When she recalls her reflection, they were not there.
In her mind, it is still the early 1990s and she is 34, not 55.
Miss Delaney, from Newton in Cambridgeshire, says she "lost" 20 years of her life following a fall in July last year.
What seemed to be a simple bump on the head turned into something far more severe as it became evident she was suffering from serious memory-loss.

It still hurts - I mean, what mother forgets her children?”

Possible Idea
For my final piece of work i am creating a collaboration series of artworks. I am providing all member of my family including me with paints, clay and other tools. I am going to get My Mum, Dad, Sister and I all to represent a specific memory. The differing versions will show how memories are specific to the individual. The memory i have chosen for everyone to depict is the last Christmas we had in England with all our family. (All my relatives live in England and we don't get family Christmases often.)
Alien Methods of Thinking
What is an alien method? In the context of this course it means using methods that are not yours. This could take the form of using someone else’s conceptual process. By doing this you will be learning more about your own process and things that you take for granted. Thus you will be able to reflect on elements of your process and develop them further.
