UNKNOWN FAILURE
Failure is a topic that no one talks about; everyone gives importance and talks about success. Do you know how many times J.K.Rowling has failed to publish her book or Oprah Winfrey was publicly fired from her job or Walt Disney was fired by a newspaper editor because he "lacked imagination and had no good ideas." As a designer how do we view failure or rejection in
a positive side?
Tim Brown, CEO of IDEO claims; "Don't think it as a failure, think of it as designing experiment." His quote has inspired and developed this project further. As a designer, I always admire print works. Print-based works are always about trial and error.
The idea I had was to collect unknown UCA students artworks from the print rooms which has been thrown or stored in there for many months and years. It's hard to predict the failure or reason why these prints are left behind. The collected prints then have been put together into a publication entitled 'UNKNOWN FAILURE'. Are all these artworks failures?
