To help me expand on ideas I visited the amazing Richard Hamilton exhibition at the Tate modern which was so packed with different installations, collages, paintings that we left the gallery buzzing from everything we had seen.
The installation I enjoyed the most and spent the most time at was the weird hallucinogenic bright box room with spinning wheels and optical illusion like painted walls and soft floors which was a crazy piece that really helped me with maybe slightly gaining an insight of how it felt to be buzzed up like how the lady's in the book would be; but maybe not enjoying it as much as I did.
The next few rooms weren't as enjoyable but nevertheless inspired me to grab a few ideas to try out myself as Hamiltion's art pieces seemed to be created from the 50's/60's onwards there were many pieces I could relate to my project. Such as collages and photography ideas and effects which really got me involved with thinking of how to present my work in more colourful and interesting ways.
