I have the space I wanted for the degree show, it is the gallery space at the entrance to the building.
Here I aim to utilise several temporary gallery walls in different compositions, some attached to the existing wall space & some free standing, with the illusion of them being balanced on Castor wheels.
If my Plan A proposal was not successful, I would have been negotiating every second of the day with the person the space was assigned to to persuade them to switch with me. This is because I intend on having my degree show work use the space as a part of the art. Any where apart from the entrance would have meant that the artwork would be seen as several sculptures and that is all. It would not encapsulate the space and be interacted with in the same way as it will in the entrance as people are directed around the space by the walls and this experience is a crutial part of the work.
