While installing I found that my idea didn't work as well as
I thought it did because it required me to regulate what was happening on the
canvass, that is when you suggested that I didn't actually need anyone to
interact with my board because it is a representation of my field research and
an extension of an experiment that I did. I did the painting that was going to
be done by the people at open day and I crossed out the rules and put it on the
ground instead of the wall because having things on the ground lying against
the wall goes against the rules of gallery presentation and the context of the
work is that of a expression of anger so it doesn't make sense to have a rule
restrict the idea so I crossed out the rules to extend on the idea of
expression of anger. I left the paint I used to paint one board by the base of
the boards to give the idea that the viewer can add their own anger to the
board, I left one board without paint but sadly someone in class painted fuck
you on it while I was in the computer labs so I didn't have time to fix it so
It is the expression of someone’s anger at me.
I think these changes fit my manifesto and my researches
allot more. I think my installment is a good example of my field research and
also a great example of research strategies, namely breaking a rule. The idea
behind the work and its context are simple and it doesn't need to make sense
since everyone perceives anger differently.
