Went to see Zhao Renhui (the Institute of Critical Zoologists) at Cardiff Chapter…amazing for its mix of fiction and fact and the quality of displays. It added another dimension to the concept of display with the use of diasec for some wall hung photos – they seem to float on the wall…but very expensive. Does this mean I am becoming obsessive about the display when I should be completing the work? The excessive rain has scotched plans for the field trip to Devon so progress on that front is very poor indeed.
I am beginning to think of returning to ‘the glass shelf’ for displaying the ceramics, while using the plinth for some of the fire pieces and some porcelain slip based works (still to be made).
This would mean that the space above the cubes could be dedicated to the documentary photos of the field trip – several of them – with MOSE catalogue entries/numbers (still to be done).
