We visited galleries and museums to help in terms of research and final images. We visited the imperial war museum. This was because of the time period Ernest’s adventure was based around (1914-1918), we wanted to understand more about that period in time and how it linked in with him, which we could then use to influence our artwork. We also looked at how pieces and items were displayed, and discovered some useful references in regards to typography and display. We could then use these references in our own displays and produce professional looking work.
This was an incredibly moving experience for me as I got to see all different stories from soldiers and the struggles they went through. It helped in terms of linking Shackelton to be being a failed hero and a symbol of people who weren't admired as the world war one heroes.
