BOX as a Brain- what is inside the box?
Brain as a BOX- what is inside the mind?
While connected the human or brain are one with the box with out each other the human/brain and box do not exist in the same reality, they do not move simultaneously, only one is able to move, the other is set motionless until moved. Without the human body the brain cannot function in an organic sense, without the brain the human body cannot function in a organic sense.
The body as a box- Vessel
Box – vessel
Vessel in props – Contemporary props allow for the viewer to project their vision onto the props.
The Box is a Box
I am a Box
You cannot see inside the Box
You cannot see inside me
Is the Box empty?
Am I empty?
IDENTITY REALITY
This Exhibition was AMAZING. The humour that ran through out was absolutely brilliant. The whole thing was a thing a thing on its own. from start to Finnish the intensely mad mind of Williams was laid out as a journey.
I got that engrossed in the exhibition I even forgot to take some of the images.
To my horror on Saturday morning after a heavy night drinking with my Girlfriend Emma, I was coxed into waling 2 hours into London to visit Bedwyr’s Exhibition. I just wanted to get onto the tube but Emma had other ideas. But you know what this journey turned into a great visual enquiry exercise.
As I stumbled along the street still slightly intoxicated from the night before a man walked past me in one hand his left, he held a suit case, in his right a trolley which he dragged behind him disowning the fact he had this at all.
He walked at some pace down the road down the street and out of sight.
As I continued my long journey I looked around at all the buildings the people buzzing around. I noticed something high up on a balcony.
There lay some cardboard at first I thought it was a man who had been kicked out of his flat and forced to sleep on the balcony over night.
Just before we made it to the Barbican we saw these two.
It was so amazing the way they dressed just did not relate to there age or race or anything about them it was just so well juxtaposed. It was so funny but at the same time beautiful, engrossed in each others love right up till the way they dressed. It also reminded me of Williams’ video piece Vdrome.
London is an amazing place, I will defiantly miss the tube anytime to have the opportunity to walk and catch these moments or moments like this again!
Though for me the exhibition was kind of well banal in its themes some of the art work and the setting was fantastic.
I loved the fact they had left the prison in the way it was before it closed. Graffiti was everywhere and was some what sad when you realise that it was made by the last occupants, young offenders.
The artwork I found most effective was that of the work you came seemed to stumble across such as this
It really gives me ideas on how presentation of the surrounding area in performance is also key to the actual performance or artwork.
I loved the concepts of Robert Gobers work but felt that parts of it were un needed there was a falseness to the work that reminded me of a theme park ride.
I have though been able to come away looking at the sight in context and really being able to gain some encouragement to how i can move forward with exhibiting in the future. whether i like the exhibition or not it really does have a atmosphere that you could not re produce elsewhere. bellow are some more images of the exhibition.
