dis solve
More to come from this weekend. An updated, expanded statement for the piece:
Sometimes you just want to take "that" and put it in a gallery, but it doesn't seem like enough. Artists tend to get too far away from "that". "That" can stand up on it's own, thank you. It just needs a little support.
I support movement. I modify sample environments. I run these adaptations of real life situations like practice dummies. The participants get to hone their perceptive skills in a softer, easier environment.
These little movements are the main way by which we interact with our environment. Living is based in perceptions of our environment. If we don't have the ability to perceive our movements fully then neither can we live life as such. This is where "that" becomes important.
