This is my final outcome created using Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator. I experimented with a variety of textures and alternative strokes to create the form of the figure ultimately leading to this outcome. During the process of my project I explored into the history of Oldham’s economy which was dominated by the Textile & Cotton industry. Next I looked at the politics of the North-South divide to understand how a Town like Oldham gets left behind when compared to the South. My hardest challenge was to find a movement to link to my project which I ended up choosing the Punk movement due to the working class origins which was a reaction to the economic and social struggles of society.

What have I learnt from this course?

During my course I have learnt how to manage my time well & organise how I complete set tasks to make sure I meet every deadline. I feel like these are extremely important to learn because it allows you to be successful and achieve highly in your course.
