wall drawing







texture
process- sanding the wall

subtle
would audiences notice the work?
situation- place work where it can be seen but still missed

intervening- changing the wall
other ways of doing this?

does the work have to be this minimal?

best way to document the work? film. sound

untitled?..

filming public in a square

square
line
grid
space
shape
buildings
movement
direction

thoughts-
placing a sculpture in the centre of the square or at the corner of the square?  dividing the square?
how would this affect the public? obstruct. intervene. change the direction of their movement. control.

film the reaction?

would the public stop and question why is the object there? would they be aware of their change in direction? would it make them aware of the space? the situation? everyone now having to change direction?

behaviour
relationships
shape between bodies

entering
leaving
overtaking

pattern
system
routine

line. square.

why do we find something so simple so interesting? why do we continue to look?

'inexhaustibility of art' (Michael Fried- Art and Objecthood)

the object
‘continues to nourish us time and time again. We cant see it in a second, we continue to read it’  
‘There is something absurd in the fact that you can go back to a cube in the same way’ (Fried 1998, p.166) 



Architecture. Sculpture. Space

How we move and act around it? How we are controlled by it?
