Instalation 8th Nov

Today has by far been my best day so far for many reasons! firstly i really liked the group of people i was with this ment i could get alone and not feel stupid if i just said random ideas. And it ment i could pick poeple that i know would work together and all give equil amounts of effort for the project. 

so we started off with a small space which we luckly got, we ran to have the best space in the whole room ( sad you may think or devoted you can choose ) this space had lights from both sides of the room. meaning we had the best lighting. which was deffently a bouns. then we, me, James Hillman, Chris Gray, Elliot Foxx, all sat down for about a hole minute then as all the other groups started to get there pens and everything out we just said right you two go to the dumpster down the road and we will go to the one in wellington, are method was get as much intresting stuff first then start to create an instalion around are objects instead around ideas which ment we might not be able to do if we cant find the right objects. 

This was a printer we found and thought instantly we could use so i did a base coat of white spary paint then added gold to it which was really intresting to look at becuase it looks quite new and working when we actilly first found it, it was at the bottom of a pit broken badly. 

This is Chris getting the boxes in the right positons.

 Then me and Elliot started painting the base of are whole instaltion which really added in the long run we used royal blue and a matt white which really looked great.

This is what are instalation looked after about an hour and a bit of searching and decided what we shale do with are objects. this aready look really intresting and just feed us so many ideas to what we were going to do to it, we firstly thought we could make paper spewing out of it as if this golden printer is ohh soo too important for normalll paper. But then we thought we could make it a bit more art house and more querky, more contempery the better we thought.

We then found an old TV which we started to try to break down so it was simpler but then half way i was told to put my tools down by one of are tuters becuase theres radio active gases inside this era of TV! so we placed the TV above are magic printer and it looked really intresting and we wanted words printed on to it but that was too complicated so i came up with the idea get my polaroid and take some photos of my mate in a teletubby suit near trees and then place them onto the tv.

 

The tellytubby idea did develop a lot! and we ended up making the illusion that the tellytubby was being sucked up by the printer.

We really wanted to make are instalation as simplistic as possible, inspired by Brancusi. This was the near finished image then we added 2 small things the plack which says; 

Then we added a small peice of metal running around are work to make it look as if it was in a real gallery which we did to make the point about consumerism. 

Today has been my favourate day and something i really dont image my self doing becuase its not where my rare passion is but something i could easily do with a few good mates again just becuase its so much fun to clash artistic brains.
