Culture – Research

Week 1

  • The first page is a spider diagram where it shows different meanings of culture. I chose Latvian food because that’s what i know more about.

  • I made a moodboard where it show Latvia’s most famous and traditional salty or main dishes. Some of them aren’t invented by latvians but are very popular.

  • I made a second diagram where it shows Latvia’s most popular and traditional desserts.

  • I researched about Latvian food. I included the time Latvians usually eat, too.

Week 2

I researched two artists.

  • The first artist is Antoine Vollon. He is a french artist that paints still life paintings. I really like the style he has and want to use it in my last piece.

  • The second artist is Vincent van Gogh. I chose his sketch artworks because I really like his mark makings. I use his style to ”decorate” my sketchbook.

  • Then, I reasearched most popular latvian dishes. I included latvian translation to the dishes to make it more interesting.

Week 3

  • I thought that to put food’s decorations and rules on the table is interesting to know. Mostly I knew about Christmas and New Year.

Week 4

  • I wrote about what i had on Christmas, where Latvian food was included.
