Daniel Buren

Buren's work is created solely on the architecture and situation settings 'in situ' these works exists only in the place they are created and to reassemble them in a different  place would change the context. They work in response to the structure of the buildings which you can see evident in the stripes and lines present in the panels ,the white mimicking the lighting.  "They are meant for and exist through direct interaction, eliciting the viewer’s sensibility, intelligence, and reflections."

Buren questions the function of the studio with the frames of the artist in the ivory tower locked away in the studio space that no one else should enter ,the myth of the artist and how they work. "The importance of the studio should by now be apparent; it is the first frame, 
the first limit, upon which all subsequent frames/limits will depend. 
What does it look like, physically, architecturally?"  To break out of these frames and limits of working in a confined space changes the context of the work its no longer insular to the influences in the studio but expands pass the walls into the bigger environmental,social and political foreground. You have to take into consideration even more so the context of the space when making site specific work.This type of work influences my practice because I enjoy the expanded material to respond to. I work with the architecture of the buildings the work in produced in like Buren. The work can not be produced in studio first as the compositions  of my interventions relies heavily on the ability to balance and the tension I can produce between the perspex and the walls, drawing attention to the missed parts of bulidings with neon and reflections.
