So I've been really sick, and being sick in your first few weeks of being abroad is possibly the uckiest thing ever... because everyone else is going out and enjoying the city... and I laid in bed at home. I thought about choosing my spot while I was ill and was unable to get out and explore new places, so after a little more thinking, i chose a place i fell in love with my first weekend here, Piazza Santo Spirito. I was suppost to be meeting a group of people there to go to a market, got pretty lost, and stumbled upon it anyway. I loved the festival like atmosohere of the market. All the different types of people, sounds, smells, were all so exciting. I love looking through old things and cool markets back home, so I loved it right away.
This weekend I went to carnevale in Venice and on our last night we all got confettied, and it made us so happy and excited I wanted to use confetti in an art piece.
Thinking about the atmosphere of the Santo Spirito market, i thought confetti would be the perfect visual stimulant for a peice about the people in my space. We'll see how it turns out!
