As part of our MFA course, Annette Harvest and I created a two-person that transformed an area of the Ruskin School of Art.
The exhibition focused on the action of painting and it’s display, offering works displayed on the traditional white walls and ones that subverted notions of value through inverting the frame and becoming wallpaper-esque. Furthermore, we sought to experiment with the space making that surrounds painting. Filling the room with carpet, hay, dramatic lighting and music, allowing the work to span all the body’s senses. To bridge the gap between the installation and paintings, we sculpted hundred of oversized metal cigarettes that adorned the walls and floor, placed precariously in the hay. This created tension through their uncanny size, underlying danger, but most significantly representing something we have bonded over.
