I was looking forward to my last tutorial because I had become a bit unsure of how to pursue the project and couldn't decide which way to take it... I liked the idea of the sellotape cells on the bike shelter but wanted to get another opinion before I took it any further. However, I feel like the tutorial has perhaps confused me even more as I was faced with more options and ideas.
We discussed the bike shed and decided that in order to draw people's attention to the surface subtly, my intervention would also need to be very subtle. It was suggested that I should look at the work of artist Liza Lou who uses miniscule beads. I was quite quickly put off the idea because it would mean disregarding all the material experiments I have done so far. I think perhaps I may leave the bike store for a future project and continue with my original materials in a different space.
So at the beginning of the holidays I am feeling a little lost as to what to do and where to take the project. My aim for my time at home is to take the fishing wire and sellotape cells around the garden and to think about them belonging in different places. Hopefully this will spark some new ideas and make me more certain for when I return to the studio.
