Paul Noble (Mall- 2001-2, left) is an artist who creates massive drawings usually featuring a form or architecture, whether realistic or otherwise. Most famous for his work on designing 'Nobson Newton', a fictional place, rendered in fine graphite lines (much like an architectural drawing), they seem like quite nice places to live. Yet, on closer inspection, one can see darkly funny details and an almost sinister view takes hold.
Lyman Tower Sargent, an American academic, has a many interesting theories on what a 'utopia' actually is. I was originally planning to go more in depth with this idea, but for now, I will continue finishing up my practical. I believe this was bee a good starting point for my project after Christmas (think of this module ending as a pause).
