hi.
i am freaking out.
because of this project.
and for those who respond:
bless your satiated hearts for being so patient and reading this all
if you can be fucked to do so.
so, if you would be so charitable
i am kindly requesting your assistance
to please criticise my project
in the most brutally and incisively honest manner possible,
because monosyllabic responses such as "it's shit" or "i like it"
will not suffice.
so please be as specific and as thorough as you possibly can
providing your busy schedule (as dictated by exam season) will permit as such
because i really need help.
i will not venture into meticulous detail of the piece's thematic concerns
because i wish to simulate the viewer's first encounter with the piece
but you may inquire about the project as much as you like
there are some photos in my gallery.
the most recent, collage-like ones.
the descriptions on them are indicative whether they are part of this project or not.
my project deals with adolescence
it is called hidden places
it deals with internal emotional responses of pubescents to external stimuli
the purpose of my layout is to create a space that is unconfident
clandestine
delicate and precarious
to reproduce the malleable state of adolescence
hence the wooden boards hung on the wall diverging into a corner (hiding)
and the cardboard pyramids scattered on the floor
the highest one is 1ft tall
and the viewer must strain to look at them
and be careful not to trod on them
by which i am attempting to evoke an atmosphere of fragility and reluctant revelation.
so, basically i want to know:
is it crap or not.
here are some more photos of the thing:
