Assignment 2. Responsive Practice – DEADLINE MONDAY 15 TH APRIL 2024


Assignment Weighting 60%

For this assignment you will further respond to your chosen project from the Victoria and
Albert Museum’s Photography section through your own photography project. You will
apply primary and secondary research, making use of everyday resources: observation, your
phone camera, imagination and speculation. Your project should draw on the concepts,
visual strategies and/or research methods explored in your previous analysis, to produce a
set of 10 images that extends or critiques the original project covered in your essay.
The accompanying text will be a proposal on where you would like to ‘exhibit’ your
photographic images outside of a gallery space – so placing your images in everyday life. You
will need to outline:
 The ideas in your work, how you arrived at them and how they relate to the work of
other photographers.
 Why your images are suited to this particular site
 How and where your work would be displayed. Include drawings or maps as
necessary.
The final work will take the form of 10 images and an exhibition proposal of 1000 words

3. To enable you to identify your creative abilities.

Assessment (criteria equally graded) A B C D F

Process:
Is there evidence of a diverse research process? (Consider: gathering information, synthesising,
editing)

Ideas:
Selection and reflection: Do you situate your project in a time and physical place? Do you develop a
visual strategy? Do you develop a clear theme?

Subjectivity: Are you aware of your voice? (Consider: are your representations going to make other
people feel uncomfortable? If so, is this your intention?)

Innovation: Is your project innovative? Have you used your imagination? Is there evidence of
experimentation? Have you negotiated clichés?

Literacy
Contextualisation: Do you situate your project in relation to the work of other cultural producers?
(consider: style, content, method)

Visual: Is there a productive relationship between your text and images? (Consider: does the text just
describe and repeat what the image says? Does it contextualise it? is the language used appropriate to
the public viewing your images?

Linguistic: Is your language well considered?

Organization:
Is the overall structure of your submission effective?

Care in presentation and academic competence


Is your submission well laid out? Does it read easily and have you attended to spelling and
punctuation? Is it transparent who your sources are? Are they credible?
