Explanantion: The painting is one element of an installation I am creating. The installation is a fictional narrative composed of carpet, objects and of course the painting. It begins with a script that the viewers can pick up and choose to role play two possible characters if they wish. The script helps to co-ordinate the viewer through the installation space as well as offering him/her a new temporary identity. The story is a modern sequel to Oedipus Rex, the Greek tragedy. The content of the script is between a patient and a psychiatrist (the patient is Oedipus’ son!) and follows the patient’s quest for a rational enlightenment with the aide of the psychiatrist. The painting is still unfinished and is 8 metres in length and about 1 metre in height.
Please upload images and information about your working processes to the blog.i look forward to seeing how your work progresses over the next few weeks and months. This blog is only open to group 1 it cannot be viewed on the web by general public.
best wishes
