Rough final ideas



From our Gallery and museum visit we we're inspired to explore the concept of bringing the 'outside' into the gallery space further, we have thought about the 'tug of war' idea of using rope to travel into and out of the space and to include participation through creation of the rope structure.


We could use materials that have connotations of the 'outside' such as natural materials like leaves and branches or cloth that has sentimental value.







Also to allow the viewer to become a participant in making will be interesing to see, The final product will be made by the participants as well as ourselves and the act of making part of what we will show as our piece.

Exploring space


To add on to Khuyens post, I find the idea of exploring the space very interesting. To explore the meaning attatched to the inside space v the outside has connotations of restriction, boundaries to freedoom. Yesterday we were talking about boundaries like gates and walls, Khuyen came up with the idea of the 'Tug of War' to symbolise a war between the inside and outside space. I think this will be great for our piece, it has a child-like quality as a game but the serious issue of war, It is open to participation from the inside and the outside,
we will need to start making some examples:),


Will be uploading our V&A/ Natural history museum trip pics soon once I figure out how to :S

Also it would be nice to organise another gallery trip, any sugesstions of where to go/ meet?
