Route of the journey

A way to plan out a journey is to put sections of a map on the wall and plan a route out using string. Adding in images of the places, names, roads and landmarks.

Sculptures in galeries


To get an idea of how my exibition wall will look like, Im have looked at the ways galleries would set out the paintings and the sculptures. They put sculptures on white blocks either in the middle of the room or next to the artists work.

Art Using Lights

My first idea for using lights is to paint the lamp base black or white, then add some drawings to the base of the lamp. The 3 colours of lights I might choose to circle around the base might be Blue, Green and Yellow.

For the lamps plug I am going to include it as part of the art work, this image inspired me to make use of the plug instead of only the lamp.
Shadow art is another thing I am going to look at which I will use on the lamp. To get this shadow effect I am going to remove the lamp shade material and replace it with plastic, then I am going to draw outlines of places I visit during my journey. Around the lamp will be white paper to show the shadows.
Above the lamp I am going to put black paper domed around the top and stab holes into it, this will make it look like the night sky.
