Exhibtion ideas and concepts

Above a

Ashely peifer exhition


Side note:
Even though my ideas have changed drastically i still feel that i can pull these ideas off so i am still keeping in mind.Maybe steering away for a interactive one.

Above are some of the ideas I had looked into while contemplating my exhibition and how I would lay it out though these are all beginning thoughts.prehapns adding bunting or some other type of decoration to my final piece es and the layout.
I do how ever want to make my final piece well displayed and well layer out for all to see 

As my final piece (or more particularly pieces are in a set of 8 I want to line them up perfectly from the ones I hate the most (that being people ) to the best ones )

Statement from artist Andrea Lofke

Artist Statement

………..once upon a time there was a world: whimsical, humorous, credulous, synthetic, intimate, alien, glittering, soft, innocent and childlike, humming and obscure……….

Materials, found, everyday objects and colorful, decorative supplies overflow the categorized shelves and bins in my studio. In fabricating these fairy-like worlds, I knit, cut, glue, sew, find, draw, construct, select, saw, paint, decorate, carve, combine and mold. Initially I begin the process of the work with a material, a feeling, a color, or a vague image. Obscure, intangible thoughts and sensations collect within my mind and my body and step-by-step the work evolves, develops while making. In my work I am going on a journey, seeking to surprise myself.

There are no words for what I am going to do. Things come together – one stone goes on top of the next – it feels like building.

My work incorporates fictional narratives, dream worlds with anchors in the real, occupy a space between familiarity and fantasy. These environments are systems – overlapping worlds, groups and subgroups that are juxtaposed and united through scale, color palette, form, space, and material. With the continuous pushing and pulling among the elements of this vocabulary, I am creating hierarchies of events and narratives, which compete and communicate. These multiform assemblages result in playful, mysterious landscapes enticing the viewer into visual narrative journeys often with a strong sense of foreboding. I develop pathways for the viewer to travel. I link micro with macro worlds, encourage a sense of irritation, and implied movement of objects, and ask the viewer to relate themselves to the forms and the situations that they present.

I am interested in creating environs in which the viewer experiences personal associations; allowing them to feel, to dream, to fantasize, to be irrational, subjective and intuitive. Specific or vague personal memories are awakened.

The viewer is asked to weave his or her own story and sensations, to believe and to wonder.

cellophane work and insperation

Below is the link for the website i have been using for my work.I feel this has helped me while experimenting as it is quite a solid guide line.The matireals and processses are easy to do put are challenging me as i am not do the exact same as what the guide says.I am using the cellopahne idea but i am printing directly onto it with paint (using cut out shapes) this will be then made into a shape or human figure (also adding the human scars ellement into it later)

Another idea i have thought about is maybe sticking with shapes but going with a stain glass window effect that would maybe have church or old church look. This is something i will be possibelly developing over time.This would also include thick black lines and have a border below are some possible idea:

futher research into this idea brought up this simple but effective idea:


This guide is actually to make a cellophane house but i will only be making a flat version (and obvioulsy not a house) I will be experimenting with this idea.
i will also be looking for plastic see through sheets(like seen above).


Above are the ideas i was on about before(^)

pop up and pull out book ideas

below are some ideas that have been sourced that relate to what i am attempting to do for my FMP exhibiton. The pull out book effect is one i want to attempt to mimic: Most pull out books i found are children (which is not particularly desirable but is still something i can work with) Other ideas that came up were more craft books that could be made at home or made as wedding cards(these were the things i tried to avoid):
g
This is one of the main ideas i will be using

net?Template layout for new idea

Below is the first attempt at a layout for a pull out picture (image) i had messed around with measurements before hand and came to the conclusion that this one was my favourite. the rEASON BEHIND A PULL OUT EXHIBIT was that i felt it would add to my theme(amp title) scars as, when some one pulled the tab down it would remove the scar and the person would be left with blank plain skin(meaning that without the scar see are born with we would have a part of us taken away. I really like this idea and plan to make it not to obvious or make it to child like

On the left there is the pull out sleeve(which will have the scars or what ever i choose to include)

On the right is the sleeve which will have the main body

image wise9or more content wise i have began to try draw out ideas and concepts of how i can do this project.So far i have drew up these ideas:

Above is where i started to add more detail to the images though I'm not sure how i feel about adding more3 as it starts to become overcrowded to me

looking more into Matisse

for my project idea i decided to scrap(or more or less put it to the side) the wire idea i had come up with before and look more at a artist whom I had researched before namely
Henri Matisse, I wanted to look at going down to the paper cut out route
