Creating spaces.








The use of the transparent cellophane was to create a pathway for the light to react with the colours applied and surroundings. Creating shadows and to mix the colours with the source of the light instead of manually. The primary colours was my way of constricting myself to not get too caught up in the distraction of choosing colours and how they would have a conversation with each other, to keep it simple and the way that all colours stem from using these three colours. The light was meant to mix the colours for me to create new ones in the shadows. The use of a small spot light in the corner changed the feel of the structure entirely. It created a den like space , comforting and child-like. This was also enforced in the use of primary colours as they are very commonly linked with children painting and learning. The space also had a stage/set like presences about it with theatrical movement through the draped cellophane. I wanted to push this further so it became a performance of the viewer travelling through choreographed pathways.
