Final Consultation.

We met with Stephen today for our final consultation on our exhibition plans. He raised the issue of creating a doorway at the entrance to the space. We discussed the possibility of using material as a substitute, perhaps layering it up to make viewers have to push through in order to gain access which I think would work just as well. I thought the door at the entrance would be going over the top by over explaining the title.

We realised that we needed to think of the curation of the show such as how we will hang work, which pieces work best together, how we can use the room to its fullest potential. Stephen raised the possibility of using pieces of work as barriers themselves as wall division seem no longer possible.

We need to make sure we are aware of how the viewer will see our work. How will it be viewed? Will the message be conveyed? Are the works a personal account of the artists, or are they a reflection on society? I think we've changed our minds about the anonymous artwork. After viewing B1's exhibition,  I think it's important to present the works with statements of their own in order make the theme both apparent and to ensure it flows throughout the show.

I feel more confident about my decision to present my video in an installation now. Stephen even mentioned using another piece of my work in the show as well as it would work well with both my own work and Ali's text based piece as well. 

Encouraging viewer interaction is still worrying me. I think we've been neglecting organising things like the confession booth for the last month and now it's going to be a bit of a mad rush to get it sorted in time. We've got a lot of work to get done in a week.
