mid semester crit/exhibition plan/summer internship!

had my mid-semester critique today. this is what i showed (please excuse the poor, hasty documentation):

my most recent statement 

along with a few of my laminated test prints

a perspective drawing of my installation plans (strips of paper with prints mounted to them; projection coming from the other side)

the floorplan for the exhibition space (prints on the west walls, viewing space for 4x6 prints, food table, and installation area)

here's a wider view of what it looked like on the wall

i also showed this video which will be projected on the installation: 

here are the notes I took:

what did i learn? Bonnie wants to know.


Gary wants to read. (include writings)


Displaced familiarity


my experience translated to continue


replication is dangerous. i'm re-structuring, re-creating


(for the writing on the back of my 4x6 prints) develop a poetic language, not pure description


need more interaction.
include smell, objects to create experience


kickstarter for donations



So what's going to be in my show?
- The video/print/sound projection installation
- Laminated/mounted on foamcore prints on the wall
- A seating area with a table covered in 4x6 prints (100+) with writing on the back, objects from NZ
- Writing from my time there & reflections on it
- Cupcakes made by Jaimie
- Smells from NZ? Not sure how to do this yet....

this will also be a benefit for the Christchurch earthquake. I will be taking donations at the exhibition and donating a portion of any profits from sold artwork.

now I just need Prospero's to give me a date!





In other news.....
I have accepted an intern position at Metro Pictures gallery in NYC this summer! YES.
