Reflections on Final Project

I enjoyed this final project because it made us think beyond what we could make to get a message across but what we could assemble. Of course it would be great if we had the software to digitally render the Rowe galleries and the works we wanted in them but our imaginations can be enough. But really this project helps you realize that a work of art can be more than just a single piece but rather a collection and how they are displayed all add up to one mega piece. I have more respect for a curators work now and we only dabbled the surface of what it means to curate an exhibit. The use of space and contrasting elements are what I felt to be the most useful, of course you rely on the artist's work to be the drawing point but how they are hung and what they are hung near really gives everything a secondary tone that helps influence what viewers feel and understand from the works.

Here are some recap photos or process work from the semester.
Not something I worked on for class but an example of the mini-works the whole process of making a juice for someone can be. I think of them as mini Jackson Polock's in a cup
