today

a work made recently for a seminar at the VCA. Thank you to Geoff for such patient collaboration! The idea being to make something like one of those figure/ground illusions where you might see a vase [the positive space], or you might see two facing profiles [the negative space] — they're apparently used for psychological testing.

I wanted to make "the space between me and someone else". We used a coil pot technique, which I neglected to research before-hand. The results were cathartic.


We made a second attempt in order to achieve something that would be recognisable as a human profile. I'm not sure the product requires refining. But further attempts are in the pipe-line.
