Dear All,
I am a undergraduate studying Psychology (I previously studied art at Leeds
Art College at Degree level) at Trinity & All Saints College in Leeds. I am
interested in how art making is/could form another, parallel language and
access/expression of what we see and remember. To this end my 3rd year
dissertation is investigating any affect that art making has on the recall
of an everyday event in comparison to a cognitive/structured interview.
I am currently at the design stage and considering such things as Left vs
Right mode of drawing etc.
For example I am thinking of having a pre-lim task of drawing something
upside down to a) encourage confidence in art making and b) to encourage the
use of the right (creative) hemisphere but am concerned that this may
affect the everyday memory (un-prompted/motivated) that they have just been
exposed to - I wondered if there was any literature/advice available on this
. . . ?
I would welcome and appreciate any and all input that could be spared(!)
Thank you for taking time to read this e-mail and apologies if this is not
relevant to your field of interest.
Sincerely
Janet Allison-Love
