Project development-site specific installation




I have decided that instead of making work and then installing it into a space which is something i have done before that i want to look into making a site specific installation. So i am going to find a space and then start playing with materials and work to go into that space. I have started by looking at potential sites.

New term,New project.
2nd year, 2nd term in Glagow.
Continuation of Body Object space project, however focusing on Installation art.

I have decided to start afresh this term rather than carrying on with last terms project. My initial thoughts are that i want to do some figurative work so my first starting point is to start researching into installations art.

Forming a conclusion to the project.

I feel that this project has come to a number of resolutions rather than one single final piece. I also feel that is is a project i could continue to research for a lot longer, i could choose other objects to investigate in more depth and continue in this way. However i feel that if i were to be showing a concluding piece for this work i would show the wooden piece in relation to the table. The two plaster encased chair legs, one drawing made around and through a chair, and a the two photographs of the chair and the seat removed from the chair as 4 seperate works. I like the idea of having four components to the main body of the work as the number four seems to represent a chair in my opinion, for example four chair legs.

Here i have experimented with changing scale, i have taken the mould i made, encasing the chair leg and have made the leg bigger than life size and almost too big for the room. I have contrasted this with the same piece on a shelf, becoming more object like.


More photoshop- Visualising potential ideas



Image from the internet that interested me

I decided to take my wax casts and to try to enhance them through the presentation of the single casts and the casts together as multiples.
