Activity Journal

The activity journal represents an ongoing log of reflections gained through each and every project activity on the calendar.

Westminster Abbey, the Tower of London, and the British Library

Monday, May 8th, 2017

Today, as a whole group London HUA group, we visited Westminster Abby. I was taken aback by the sheer number of notable and famous figures interned all within the Abbey's walls. The scale of how much history is concentrated in such a place is nothing sort of remarkable. A place where royal marriages occur mere feet from the graves of the likes of Chaucer and Newton.

The Tower of London, specifically the White Tower within, holds the title of London’s oldest standing building. Despite this, or maybe as a result, the building itself seems to almost meld with the landscape. Nearly one thousand years old now, this ancient work of Norman architecture serves as a beautiful juxtaposition against the post-modern design of the city surrounding it.

Upon entering the doors of the The British Library, the eye is drawn the library’s crowning centerpiece, The King’s Library. A massive column of an uncountable number of books upon books dated centuries old. A monument to preservation as well as exhibition, this display remains behind thick glass and locked doors as if to all at once tempt and deny such knowledge.

British Museum

The British Museum’s entrance itself seems to command some classical authority with its Greek inspired mausoleum front entrance. Boasting exhibits across the worlds ancient cultures to exhibits on modern issues, The British Museum deftly and beautifully captures a monumental swath of human history.

Saint Paul's Cathedral

Wednesday, May 10th, 2017

Saint Paul’s Cathedral, as a whole, felt more like a quaint amalgamation of a gallery as well as a cathedral. Art pieces from sculptures to murals to video installations punctuate Saint Paul’s, filling up and adding to an otherwise empty space. These works help bring the cathedral to the modern day in tackling modern issues of immigration, world conflict, and climate change. At the same time as the cathedral exhibits the work of others, the building itself stands as a gorgeous piece of art all its own. Remarkable engineering and inspiring design choices like the cathedral’s Baroque Architecture.

Tate Britain

Tate Britain seeks to concisely consolidate art history from the fifteen hundreds to present day. While efficiently conveying art's turbulent change and reshaping over the last five-hundred years seems an almost insurmountable task, Tate Britain proves more than capable of getting the job done. walking to the end of Tate Britain's central hallway, by tracing a path in an anti-clockwise direction follows the arrow of time starting in the year of our lord 1500. The biggest jump in style can be undisputedly experienced with the turning of the new millennium. Realism gently paired with abstraction muddies into self-aware pure abstraction. For better or worse, walking with the flow of time informs a more complete experience than any one single exhibit could convey. The whole gallery as a whole becomes an almost meta work of art about the art itself.
