<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Here is a pretty bad video 'tour' of the finished piece, but combined with the (also poor) photos, you get a general idea of the whole thing.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Small summery of our project and final outcome for this Options week:</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">For the theme of Body and Identity we decided to create an installation that represented there can be a divorce between who someone is and what they look like. How they are and can be two completely different things. The old, 'don't judge a book by it's cover' saying.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">The booth was the 'template' of our person, our 'characters' exterior would be a </span><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">beautiful perfection,almost sickly sweet,</span> representing a heightened image of perfection, the idea of beauty only being skin deep. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">The interior would represent a rotten core, their ugly, vain identity on the inside. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span>
<br />

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">This is the outside, it was painted white, like a blank canvas but with all these ideas of beautiful things being projected/stuck onto it. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Images and scenes of picturesque landscapes, nature, and a close up of a girls eyes blinking, were projected onto it, over white rose petals. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Rose petals and pot puree were sprinkled around the base, giving off a floral scent and we would associate with femininity. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">All these metaphors together were used to project an over-the-top idea what is beautiful and perfect, linking back to Hollister their their projection of the ideal on the customer. In turn also how the media dictates what is considered 'beautiful'. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Also how the Nazi regime tried to create </span><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"> the 'perfect race'</span> through Eugenics.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">The interior is painted black and the only light is from the small entrance, it is small and claustrophobic, the high black walls around you only enhance this feeling.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Ahead is a lambs heart on a dripping plinth. The smell of the heart is unpleasant, showing the viewer how potentially gruesome and unpleasant something<span style="color: #0000ee;">/someone</span> can be on the inside, despite a beautiful exterior (body).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">On the walls surrounding are broken mirrors, reflecting back at the audience a jagged, distorted self, making it all slightly disorientating.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">These represent a bad, self absorbed vanity, how when someone can be so caught up and self absorbed in their own refection and identity, that they don't have time to notice what else is going on around them. And can</span><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span class="messageBody" data-ft="{"type":3}"><span class="userContent"> <span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;">"</span>l</span>oose one's sense of direction, position, or relationship with one's surroundings".</span></span></span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">(Here you can see my refection and then the heart on the plinth in the bottom right shard)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">At the base of the heart bearing plinth are melted and distorted Barbie dolls. They have their stomachs and breasts burnt out, some have faces too. This is to also represent vanity and how destructive it can be. In the search for a vain 'perfection' people can ruin their true pure beauty. Their rotten core had burnt out.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Challenging the physical possibilities of the gallery space, this
ambitious exhibition investigates our experience of architecture through
the body, and of the body through architecture. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Made in direct
response to the space of the South Gallery II is the vast, new work
MODEL, which is also the title of the exhibition. Fabricated from 100
tonnes of weathering sheet steel, the work is both sculpture and
building, human in form but at no point visible as a total figure.
Visitors will be able to enter the work through a 'foot' and journey
through its inter-connected internal chambers, the sculpture demanding
that we adjust our pace and bend our bodies to its awkward yet absolute
geometry. The experience of this analogy for the 'dark interior of the
body' is guided by anticipation and memory and the direct and indirect
light which penetrates the structure and which leads us on, as if
through a labyrinth. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">The exhibition also includesa room of
models - trials mostly made in the year leading up to the exhibition but
including some examples from as far back as ten years ago. The room
presents a dialogue between dwelling in the body and dwelling in a
building and explores the potential of sculture as a form of
psychological, reflexive architecture. <br /><br />There are frames, solid
plaster casts and architectural models that map the darkness of the
body. Some of the blockworks shown in the corridor have counterparts in
the model room, where their solid masses become hollow and form complex
interiors. Three models for the interconnecting chambers of the large
work MODEL are shown. Throughout the objects and drawings here there is a
dialogue between extension and expansion, where the scale of the body
is taken as a variable.<br /><br />The room is a laboratory of possibility,
showing the ways in which ideas cross-fertilisze and produce ever more
vigorous hybrids. It gives an insight into the workings of the studio as
an open-ended exploratory playground in which space and object become
interchangeable. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">This is what we came up with:</span><br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">We propose to create a space that represents the idea of how
someone appearance is not necessarily their identity. The divorce between body
and soul, and to what extent these two inter-link.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">This space will have a contrasting inside and outside, which
will be divided by flats. Both spaces will be set up to represent the outer
body image and the inside identity of a person.</span></div>
</blockquote>
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">This is a bit of a change from our original starting point, but I suppose ideas develop and change with discussion.We moved away from the idea of creating a disorientating space because whatever tenious link we got to that idea by, we had forgotten.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">This new idea has a much clearer link to the theme 'Body and Identity'. We are going to try and represent how a person can look beautiful, happy or pure from the outside, yet on the inside be rotten to the core.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">We intend to use flats to create a space within a space, the outside will be the epitome of beauty, and the inside will represent the rotten core of our 'person'.

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"> Took a trip to CyberDog in Camden today. CyberDog, like Hollister has a similar kind of 'club' atmosphere to it, but in a more rave way.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Electronic music pumping, UV lighting making the florescent clothing glow and all the shop assistants dressed as if they were about to head out of a bit of happy hardcore raving. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I don't know whether I would class CyberDog as disorientating, more as intense, I felt like I should be donning some neon and going out, not just casually browsing. </span><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">This got me thinking about other places I've found disorientating.

<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Eugenics is the belief of improving the human race through 'selective breeding' ie. encouraging the reproduction between humans with desirable traits (positive eugenics), and discouraging reproduction of partners with genetic defects (negative eugenics).</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Sort of creating the 'perfect race', like the Nazi regime with their aryan 'master' race.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"> Can you see the similarities?! Hollister models and Nazi propaganda poster!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Linking only in the way Hollister project a perfected image onto the customer, all the models dressed and looking the same, that preppy sporty style. If you buy their clothes you will also somehow turn into this highly attractive perfectly preppy, sporty type.</span><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I took the trip to Hollister today. I walk in and its pretty busy, music is playing loudly and there is that distinctive perfumed 'Hollister smell'. Big leafy plants scattered around, on the floor and the also on the big wooden tables on which clothes are neatly folded. An attractive male assistant seems to be on clothe folding duty at one of these tables. </span><br />

<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">The low lighting makes navigating through the people, tables and plants tricky. I also feel quite on edge, I don't know whether its the fact I'm trying to take sneaky pictures or trying not to look like an idiot infront of all these hot guys. Whatever it is I feel out of place, I make a quick exit. I'm glad that's over.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span>
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">We want to create a similar feel, make the audience feel on edge, maybe not through models, more the loud noise, low lighting thing!</span>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">This
parable describes a group of prisoners who had been chained in a cave
all their lives, they are chained in a way so that they are compelled to
stare at a blank wall ahead of them. Behind them is a raise walk way
which they cannot see, and behind that an enormous fire. The shadows of
the passing people on the walkway are projected in front of the
prisoners, this is all they can see and all they have ever seen. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">This is their reality. They don't know the shadowed shapes are of men and that the sounds that they hear are just echos. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Then
the analogy continues; a prisoner is taken out of the cave and shown
true reality. How could he ever return to watching shadows? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">From
this parable we took the idea of the prisoners initial view, only being
able to see the human form in shadow. An outline, a template of the
human form.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;">Thi<span style="font-size: small;">s idea of <span style="font-size: small;">perfection is an interesting one.

Or is it just an opinion<span style="font-size: small;">?</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><br />

This has been calculate<span style="font-size: small;">d <span style="font-size: small;">by Le<span style="font-size: small;">onardo Da Vinci<span style="font-size: small;">'s illustrations<span style="font-size: small;"> of perfect proportions<span style="font-size: small;">, measuring beauty.</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span> <br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">"Dr
Pfulg uses the golden ration 0.618 – a proportion found in great works
of art, from the Pyramids to the Mona Lisa – which supposedly signifies
physical harmony. In the human body, for example, divide the distance
from the head to the navel by the distance from the navel to the base of
the feet – the closer you are to 0.618, the hotter you are.<br />Our eyes
are particularly seduced by proportions that respect this magical
number; according to tests, babies appear to prefer features judged
handsome by adults. Forget about pining for a perfect size 10 or scary
size zero; 0.618 is the number we should be aiming for. To find out if
you have the perfect<br />features, divide your face into three
segments:from top of forehead to the eyebrows,from the eyebrows to the
base of the nose and from there to the top of the chin.<br />proportioned measure.<br />In a perfect face all segments are of equal length. For the perfect height must be equal to the distance<br />nose,
the width at nostril separating one eye from the other. If your eyes
are ideally positioned the distance between them should be equal to the
width of one eye. The equation a/b=b/a+b should give you the golden
number of 0.6198.This is a 15th-century formula that we’ve simplified to
marks out of 10 – and if you’re not cross-eyed by the end of that,
consider yourself a genius."</span></blockquote>
