Wall, Floor. Floor, Wall. Interim 13. 2013.
These photographs represent the artwork I created for the Interim show.
I took the Interim show as a platform to give an insight into what I was most recently exploring and what I wanted to create for the degree show.
At this point I was looking beyong the objects I use in my practice and became very interested with what was present in the interior of spaces. I used the red string as it was industrially used and was something I believed would work well with what I was doing; working with the interior of spaces. Initially I wanted to distort the ceiling and walls by presenting a mass of string in compact linier lines from the ceiling to the wall to the floor. This way the ceiling I created would be diagonal as would the walls. However, it was not possible to get hold of ladders which were tall enough to reach the ceiling and I thought that using the string in a way that was flat and compact would translate as a mural painting. This very much put me off of the idea.
I continued to experiment and came to this conclusion for the time being. It was an exciting time for me as my practice had developed into the realm of site specificity. The Interim show took place before the [OCCUPIED] event where I had decided to further experiment with the potential of the string.
