Who Do You Think You Are Michelle Haswell?

posted on July 21st, 2010

Bio: I am a graphic designer and I love to create thought provoking art-led design. Whilst I subscribe to the minimal school of design, as many designers do, I feel design which does not simply comform rigidly to the grid system is design which can cross over into art. I am passionate about the idea of typography becoming part of the art, not merely a device for communicating information. -M.H.

1asked by william secombe

Who are you most inspired by?

My own mood and music.
When I create I create very much from my heart. How I am feeling emotionally contributes to the way a piece of graphic art/design might go - I will interpret the brief differently depending on my mood.

What do you want to most convey in your work?

I dislike merely superficial work so in my own work I want to convey emotion most of all. I want provoke and question and I want the viewer to look and interpret each piece in their own way.

Who Do You Think You Are Jay McDougal?

posted on July 3rd, 2010

Jay McDougall’s sculpture is produced in the classic reductive method where material is removed to reveal the form, much like the process used to carve marble. This method is much more challenging and less forgiving than additive sculpture where material is added or fabricated to compose the form. A reductive sculptors’ objective is a delicate point of balance where he has removed everything required to reveal the form and nothing more. To continue carving would detract from that desired form.

Who are you most inspired by?

I’m most inspired by those people who are able to do so much more, with so much less than me.

2

What do you want to most convey in your work?

I want my works to stand independent of me or the processes which are used to create them. I don’t want the first impression to be that it’s a “McDougall”, or how did he do that. I want there to be a visceral connection between my work and the viewer.

Who are you most inspired by?

Johns. Beckmann. Jay Z. Basquiat. Rauschenberg. Mr. T. Jobs. Lynch. Erin. Other inspirations: Architecture. Manhattan. Energy. Family. Coffee. Prose. Twilight. Booze.

2

What do you want to most convey in your work?

Since most of my work is painted on-location, I strive to capture not only a faithful visual impression; but also the unseen energy. It’s like meeting someone at a bar. You buy someone a drink because of their looks – you stay if they aren’t vapid, crazy and/or have a grating voice.
