Experimenting with the space/ setting up the exhibition...









Bit of back- tracking to do here thought id upload some images from the last few weeks when we have been experimenting with the space, projector and our work... these images are from the first trip to flux galleries... Paul had mentioned wanting to project onto netting or muslin. Julie and me had found a nice piece of plain netting in Meanwood community shop so Paul played around with this staple gunning it to the ceiling, creating folds which made interesting light effects.... It made the projection look ethereal and kind of lucid... We decided it looked stronger with no projection screen....

Paul came back to finalise the screen and decided on a layered effect this created multiple images and distortion and looked really strong, he wanted people to be able to move around the piece the image changing according to where it is viewed from.... We tried putting Julies clouds on there, originally Julie wanted the clouds on the floor but they seemed to get a bit lost with the colour of the wood. After a discussion it was decided they looked much stronger on the ceiling, the projection would be viewed at all times rather than in one space and the words would welcome you as you come in... Our ideas developed as we worked within the space, we were open to change and receptive to others ideas on how to work best within the space we have...
