Final Drawing Installation!

After completing each individual work I pinned them all up on the wall and spent a lot of time moving them around to create a lively experimental vibe, and generate conversation surrounding materiality, the interaction between materials and the relationship that each individual work has to the works around it.

When I first pinned them up none fo the images were touching each other or over lapping. This gave each work space but I found that not matter how much space I tried to give them they were all fighting individually for attention in their own way. I have decidied to go along with this level of visual compititon between the works and force them to interact and chellange each other. Overlapping the images has sparked a new level of competition for dominance and has brought in ideas of clustering and allowed each work to relate closely to one another and feed off of each others visual components.



     The individual works are colliding with one another on a neutral white surface and ech one is fighting for the eye of the viewer.

I have placed some images with similarities next to each other to draw the viewers attention to each work.

I have also found that the materiality of the PVA gluie is highlighted more when I layer certain works over each other.

 The viewer can see through one work to the next in some cases and in others the front work takes over the other.

I feel these works work well as an installation and I am interested in the strong relationship between PVA glue, nylon, wool and paint. I feel that this installation successfully portrays my ideas and interests and generates a very lively, experimental and playful converation between works for the viewers to become a part of and interpret in their own way.
