The session actually went really well - I got some interesting feedback (notes in Journal II). I realise now that my work has a certain engaging quality due to the photography (made into projection) as the figures have dynamic features possibly such as the piercing eyes or the contortions of the body. I need to push this further and work on how I can make my work more immersive and work with the dimensions of the space.
Next step is to find a space I can book for an experimental installation. PS2 seems the most suitable at the moment - I need to check for availability. I want to work more with colour - as through the Group exhibition experimentation I discovered that colour is an important aspect to the mood but it can be overloaded by the photography also e.g. the blue tone of my "face" piece was not seen as calming because of the engaging eye of the character (seen as sinister to some spectators).
The most interesting comments were the ones that said how the work created dimensions and depth - exactly what I want to portray by creating an immersive environment for the audience.
I need to explore with memory - need more source material.
I need to experiment with a large area - book space.
I need to explore different aspects of my work - such as sound and video.
I need to work on how I can form my projection ideas - I need a basic plan of layout.
I need to find ways to portray my memory theme - making it more clear and less of random narrative.
