I made a small model out of cardboard with the intention of using it to project my secrets and confessions onto with a projector. I also want to experiment with Photoshop covering the walls with words and questions that trigger people to think about secrets that they are keeping to themselves. I also have an idea for a space where there is a low lit room where people are invited to go in and write a confession on the wall using a pen that can only be seen using a black light. Only after adding a confession do they receive a black light to read there own secrets as well as everyone else. I think is idea for a space is interesting as it puts a lot of importance on the exchange of information and questions how we value are secrets. We often use secrets and private information like currency and people put great value and importance n keeping them hidden in the dark.
I Also like the idea of having a large space where questions are posed to the viewer and they are surrounded by things to make them consider and think about this type of secretive and private information. Letting lots of people into this space would also maybe make the viewer more comfortable with the knowledge that everyone else is probably thinking the same thing.
FINAL OUTCOME
In response to the questions and spaces i was thinking about i did these quick 10 min paintings. I used quick movements before laying over a question or confession. The background of colour is confusing and distracting and the small painted letters can easily be lost in the rest of the painting. Just as secrets can become lost and easily to miss and cover over so dose the text in some of these paintings despite there importance to the work. Although these paintings were quick and small i feel they show a lot of the different elements and theme that i have been exploring and experimenting with.
