I WANT TO SEE MORE THAN THERE IS
An assignment where you are only allowed to work with black fabric. Bring an image that you have a connection with and try to translate it into how or what the image tells you. Mine were a pair of binoculars that my grandmother gave me.
The object says it all, you can look into the distance with it. But the object itself is also very beautiful. You can give it space by moving the lenses further apart or back again.
If there is not light, you can't see anything through it. But what if you put the light on itself?
What do you see then?
I saw new shapes created by the shadows of the object and the brighter the light the sharper and darker the shadow became. Almost black. Can I use it to create a shape that remains a shadow or can I also translate it into a shape that you can physically hold?
Trying out. With reflective material that repels and absorbs light.
With reflective material that provides shade but also makes it visible.
