collections of mary

um i am sure how i will procede with my next project. i was really inspired by my last project and creating transparent artist imagined spaces or openings. i have sketched and thought of a lot of places i could add them into the existing architecture (the terrace, roof, stairways. i am really intersted in spirals and stairways in general so i thought about incorperating that into my project somehow. i am currently personally exploring spirals and stairways and other unsettling things in my project for reagan. while reading the e-mail julia sent us i expanded my idea of what a structure can be. i am interested personally in books which i am also exploring in reagans class and which i would like to see if can incorperate here. i think right now i have a lot of ideas in my back pocket i am just trying to see where they all lead and what of interest they mght be juxaposed against one another. i love looking at all the anciet roman greek buildings in the roman forum and the 3- and low releif statues in the capoline museum. i liked the idea of partial architecture or remains of spaces or the implied spaces that can be imagned from the ruins. or the reuse of spaces throughout time. the low realif ideas of space were also intrigueing.

i like the idea of my collection being less a group of objects and more a body of ideas which are encompased in a structure whether a pysical place you can walk through or something more compact like a book.
