FINAL OUTCOME

The works

Description

Alzheimer’s disease is one of many symptoms of dementia. It is a degenerating brain disease that harms the part of the brain. As Alzheimer advances, the symptoms get more severe and include disorientation, confusion and behavior changes. Eventually, speaking, swallowing and walking become difficult. There is no way to prevent, cure or even slow Alzheimer’s disease.

Why?

  1. The ones who are suffering from Alzheimer
    used to be the person who took care of us,
    feed us and raised us until we are ready to
    be on our feet by ourselves. As we grow
    older, they get older as well. And it is our
    turn to give back to the society even if its
    not them that raised us.

  2. To spread awareness more about thier
    experience on a daily basis and educate
    them about it.

Why?

  1. Because they are the most impatient to
    handle Alzheimer’s patient and at the
    same time, around that stage in life
    university students will be advancing
    into adult-hood.

Methods

Practitioner 2

Jonni Cheatwood is a Brazilian-American visual
artist working across many different disciplines
including painting, photography, graphic design
and textile art. Cheatwood’s work describes the
broad visual ideas stemming from still life,
abstraction and minimalism, but his approach
is a wonderful amalgam of his artistic disciplines in which veritable scraps of canvas are hand-sewn together before his idiosyncratic mark-making is thereafter applied to the newly created surface.

His experimentation with and misuse of the
mechanics of photographic reproduction
and often physical interrogation of analogue
photographic processes questions photography
as a vehicle of depiction and its capacity for
memory.

1. Shutter speed experiment

Practitioner

2. Mixed media photography

Experiments

The experiments with using old photos
with the permission from collegues to
use their photos and apply the filters
to blur the face. Using photos of old
memories to create the first experiment outcome.

To find a suitable photo outcome, this
is one of the experiments I had played
around with slow shutter speed

Experiments

Wanted to use paint as an initial idea.
But paint was ran out and art shop is
considered “non-essential” another
alternative was needed and wax 
was another option to create this 
new outcome.

The was only had one color which is vanilla
white, so the color was manipulated around
photoshop to generate different color ideas.

After some feedback from peers, it seems the outcome is a bit too plain and no reason. at all. So to make the project more executable, a collaboration was created  called “Daniel Koh x Alzheimer Disease Foundation Malaysia”. 

This collaboration will help educate people about Alzheimer’s society
