I had little resources to use in order to create transfers so this took me a while to finish. This task really exciting and enjoyed the process of removing the layers of paper.
For my first transfer I wanted to start off easy and tried transferring an image onto cardboard first. I didn’t have much to transfer at the time but found a paper with cultural design on it and thought that would be a cool thing to transfer so I used what I had to make the first move and they turned out alright.
For my second transfer I decided I wanted to be more creative with it and give the piece a theme. The theme I selected was the aesthetic of South Auckland. By the time I made this I was able to collect newspapers and books to use in this piece. There are about 5 image transfers on the page and I also decided to add paint and random designs in some areas where the page was blank to make the page more full.
For the final transfer I used a rag I found lying around the house. I found two twin images of a kitten and decided to use those two images to transfer onto the piece of cloth. I thought it would be cooler if i added parts of a newspaper article on the sides as it looked pretty blank. The rag was a different kind of material so I was unsure if it would work but it was a success.
