By appropriating my day to day routines in re purpose some ideas to incorporate into my art as a mark making strategy. While some may have found this concept easy I struggled with securing an idea. I don't have many daily habits or rituals that could or do result in mark making. However, I do have many day to day thoughts that regurgitate themselves in a routine manner. One of which is about my family, my role in the family as the younger and only female sibling and how my upbringing has influenced my role in a domestic relationship.
I was having coffee with my mother and began to discuss the project with her questioning what idea I should follow, and before I was able to even present my thoughts my mother said "Vacuuming! that habitual"
I couldn't thank her enough this idea encompassed all that I was thinking in one motion. As a person who doesn't vacuum much, yet will whip out the vacuum on the seconds notice of a parental visit this idea really was perfect.
