Today I gave a pitch to the company Primary Europe for a
commission. It was a nerve-wracking experience, but I feel as this has helped
my confidence in talking about my work and consolidating my ideas. I pitched
two ideas for the office walls. My idea is an abstract representation of
Manchester using the symbols and embroidery techniques that I have developed
for this unit. As part of the pitch I had to do a 5 minute presentation about
my work and explain the logistics behind the making and fixing it.
These are the two ideas I put forward today. I created
visualisations from a selection of my samples. I have never done this before so
it was great to see how my work could look in a space. However during the
presentation, I was asked about the scale of my work in relation to my
visualisations. I then realised that I had made a mistake and I had made them
too big for the wall on Photoshop. Although I was ultimately unsuccessful, I'm
glad I had the opportunity to present my ideas and the experience has helped me
resolve my project as well as think further about the context of my work.
