creative research ideas

1. Creative Research
Jessica Mitchell

2. Initial Ideas
• Natural Beauty
• Microscopic world
• Colours, textures and patterns created
through natural processes.
• Most are invisible to the naked eye
• Capture beauty in it’s rawest form.
• Link into colour theories etc.
• Why is something naturally beautiful
invisible to us?
• Why are we taught to be repulsed by a lot
of these things?

3. Research
• Look more into the microscopic world we cannot see.
• Note down patterns, shapes, colours and textures.
• Research different objects and their microscopic forms.
• Fashion and beauty that has already used this idea in their designs and catwalks.
• Micro – Iris Van Herpen
• How can this be linked to art, fashion and beauty?

4. Examples
• Drawn to the colours and textures
within the images.
• Do not appear to be what they
really are.

5. Next Steps
• Start my research into these ideas.
• Refine my idea down so it isn’t such a broad topic.
• Choose one or two examples of microscopic objects to focus on e.g. marine or
food.
• Start primary and secondary research.
• Talk to professionals.
• Visit museums such as V&A and Science Museum to gather information.
