4: Brainstorming

In our TRIAD, we originally wanted to explore the Black Cat Alley, a public outdoor gallery filled with street and public art. But after discussing the ideas a bit and realizing how open the project actually is, we decided to focus on one key word: series. Each of the three of us will focus on some kind of series. For example, a collection/series of designed toys or a series of unique art pieces, or design works, etc. Anything really, as long as it's a collective or a series of the pieces under the same umbrella done by the very same artist. We all will be picking three different professionals/creatives that fit our interests best.

Personally, I am not sure yet who to focus on. I possibly want to talk about a less known (not famous, out there) creative. There is an artist who does miniature pop-up books (1), but not much known about the artist themselves, however, they work is amazing. Another artist who's work I follow is Trine Sejrup (2), who does enamels and metal pins, she is a Norwegian designer. And Julia Cissell (3) is an artist and a mini-sculptor who does micro-mini versions of living things found in nature such as her large butterfly collection smaller than a half of a pinky nail (as shown on a photo). Overall, I haven't found anyone else I felt very inspired by who also does a series of something. I will be looking more into different types of artists and try to expand beyond CD realm.
