(continued from the last post)
The lights in the gallery was something was worrying me for most of the week, but when I came back to the gallery on Saturday afternoon, it was much better, as some of the strip lights were turned off.
Overall I was happy with my week. I was happy with the ambitious work that I had produced in a short space of time. The scale worked well and the feeling of the work was satisfying. This was the first work I had made where the viewer could enter the structure. There was a different experience for the viewers when viewed inside, from afar or under that leaning wall. This was the largest piece of work that I have ever made, and I am wondering where to go next. Right now I am feeling more positive about my work, and feel as if I have taken a small step towards something.
I am now back in the studio preparing more canvases, but this experience has reminded me how much I like making the big structural work. Time to work towards the next opportunity, whatever that may be!
The exhibition still runs for a few more days. Thursday – Saturday this week 12pm – 5pm, so if you happen to be in the area, go and check it out!
