I finished installing the pieces on Saturday and I am very happy with how they look and I know our show is going to look amazing!
Although I took a break from the studio yesterday (the first day I didn't go into the studio since who knows when), I am back today to finish writing my distinction paper and brainstorm for new pieces. Unfortunately, I am at the end of my PINS funding-- the stands for my pieces were terribly expensive (probably cost more than the pieces themselves). I am down to maybe $200, probably less. This has told me that I need to find a cheaper way to display these works in the future, or possibly make smaller work once I am out of money. Though I must admit, the stands look really good.
I am also undertaking a relevant project in Open Media Studio, as I have attempted to do all quarter, which will likely serve as a part of this body of work. The many other pieces I have created in other classes all year has been relevant to my concepts overall, but have not utilized Plexiglas as a material. I am finally going to include myself in the work, and try to recreate old photographs using myself as the subject. I will then transfer the photos to separate sheets of Plexiglas and add symbols on top. Hopefully this project will provide new material to continue working, even after the quarter ends.
See you all on Thursday!
