OUGD405 | Studio brief 02 - Superlambananas Crit and Words

In response to the brief of '100' and the theme of collections, I have decided to research a collection of sculptures representative of the culture of Liverpool named "Superlambananas". I selected this as my topic due to the location of the subject. As the sculptures are close to home, it will be easier for me to photograph.
I had really been lacking ideas to present in the interim crit. My ideas were limited to this, and an origami theme which I dismissed due to the difficulty with transporting anything that I might create as an example. It was suggested in my crit that I ask teach others how to create a certain type of origami and photograph the results. I was fond of this idea but as mentioned the difficulty with transporting these could not be ignored.
Further ideas that I considered were magazines and Starbucks cups as these are items which I tend to hoard. However, I felt that the Superlambanana idea was my strongest. Due to the positive reaction in my crit it seemed the right way to go.
It was suggested that I research the artists of the sculptures and create my own version.

I began my collection of research by gathering my 20 words. I came across a website which gave all the names of the GoSuperlambananas, so I selected 20 of the most interesting...
