Showing: April 12

This April 12th, I'll be showing a collection of images related to research on color blindness.  This will be somewhat of a midterm showing of what I have been working on and researching for this spring semester.  If you are in the Jackson area, I hope you'll find yourself downtown that Saturday to enjoy some company, food, drink and allow me the pleasure to find out what you think about my work thus far.

Pina


http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1440266/

My good friend and I are collaborating a show together combining dance, film and photography.  Lines in dance and how it interprets on a print.  The movie "pina" was exactly what I was looking for in my research on choreography that is thought of as an expressive work of art rather than a story accompanied by dance.

Ideas

Newspaper prints with low quality filter. 50x10. Dark paper. Pattern paper transperancy possibly. Tacked or taped on each corner to a really pretty finish of wood or plastic. Landscape of mountains to create irony due to the low quality paper and filter. 

Ant farm on top of large microscopic print. Framed in blonde wood. 

Hanging microscopic prints on fabric stretched in cross stitching round frames.

Fabric prints

My printer died on me but I got this photo printed on fabric. I'm thinking I'm going to make a hanging three dimensional installation out of several of these. Not sure. I change my mind every other day! I guess my brain is filtering quicker than I make which is a good thing!
