I was working on a performance/sculpture photo project where a sculpture I made could only exist with my intervention. I was interested in the idea of having sculptures that weren't fully realized in form alone but in movement and some sort of human intervention.
My TA said it resembled 60s performance documentation. I'm not sure how I feel about it. I keep thinking about forms and Aristotle. About how things aren't described in form or aesthetics but in functionality. Like a toy is a toy because it is played with and not because it resembles the physicalities of a toy.
AND below is a photo i took of my prof. Nick Olsen.
these are awesome. Its so cool to see pieces of art that are so affected by the process. The actual objects themselves are this awesome byproduct of the process and the idea is a byproduct of your interaction with the world. Its just really cool to see! Good job getting through your class! I know it was hard with moving and all!
