Space

Before I decide on the type of installation piece I'm going to create I think it is important to first choose a space from around the classroom where I would like my installation to be located.

The following photographs are spaces from around the room that appealed to me in one way or another.

In this photo you can see two spaces - the space beneath the white table and also the space within the small black windows along the back brick wall.

- Both of these spaces appealed to me because I believe they would be unconventional spaces to view and installation. Both force the viewer to get involved and really look into the spaces in order to view the installation. These are the kinds of spaces that probe at a viewers curiosity and tempt them to look at an installation in a different way.

- The photograph shown above is of a space which i thought captured the most light in the room - perfect for an installation created entirely of alfoil because the material is so reflective - also this space had the advantage of the hanging fluorescent lights, which would be perfect if I was to create an installation that needed to be suspended.

- This is most probably my most favourite space within the entire room. Within this space there are two right angle corners. I am very interested in creating an installation that occupies either of these spaces. Corners open themselves up to a room and force the viewer to look directly at what occupies within them. No installation would be able to hide or be smothered by either of these spaces - also having the two edges located within the corners would make it easier to prop or suspend an installation.
