now that the internet is up and running, we can get serious :)
it was difficult getting back into the swing of school...spring break was not long enough. Despite my complaints, things have been going pretty well. In my first project about measurement, I played off of Les Corbusier and his "model man". through a series of photos, i created the model woman (i e me ha ha). they are taken in a bathroom, each one touching a different surface of the room. it starts with the toilet and then proceeds on through until the ceiling.
This project opened things up for the next project about spectacle. Before, I had created a static representation. i now moved to a moving film. I addressed the idea of privacy, or rather a lack there of. In my photos, the figure is unaware of the viewer. She is in a towel, going about her daily routine. But she is being watched. The viewers of the photos are "peeping"...and it is without their consent. In my film, I am creating a similar situation. a shower curtain conceals a wall with a "peep hole/box". when the viewer stoops down to look inside, he/she will be looking at the video of a woman taking a shower. the viewer is invading on a private moment...stumbling on it. he feels guilty, but cant look away.
dont worry, this project is pg...no nudity...only bare from the back and the waist up
get excited
