Another two posts for today, and then onto rereading John Berger’s book Why Look at Animals?
This first post will concentrate on another two design ideas I had for my installation work.
This first design idea comes in two parts, and outside design idea and also an inside design idea.
With this design I wanted to initially create a sense of security and calmness within the viewer. By first confronting them with a bricked walled face of a house, with windows a door and other house necessities.
The viewer would enter the space through the “front” door and walk into a small cramped living area with some necessities in the area, such as a chair or a table and maybe a bed too.
These are a few ideas that I have been concerned with at the moment, I want my viewer to have some sort of experience in the space, I want them to e confronted by their own “homely” place, BUT I was a bit stuck on how to make it more zoo like (hopefully the next post will start to unravel more of my thoughts and feelings and add some direction to where I’m thinking of going next)
