Steve Hockett workshop

Steve Hackett Intro - From the workshop I gathered Steve Hockett is a jack of all trades and follows his heart and does what he loves as his job.He taught me that imperfections can produce the best, most interesting work! He paints paintings, makes posters, designs logos as well as creating fanzines. 

The following work was created in the workshop. A group task was formulated where one would start off with a quick, rough sketch of an object/thing. This would then be passed onto the next person in the group to replicate the drawing. Results showed that this method was inaccurate and changed/ manipulated the image into something that looked completely different from the original. However, it was a really effective, interesting process.

The 'WHOA' design by Steve hocket connects to the process above showing different forms of production form different outcomes. Here is an example of one of Hockett's design where a digital print gives of a slick, polished finish. However, the sewed rug incorporates the same design but the production method forms a different outcome with rugged edges.

During the workshop the following processes were then carried out by peers to create zines which told a story without being too perfect within the design process and thinking about different ways things could be formulated. From this really quirky, cool, fun and playful designs were mocked up.
