The project _ an outlineOriginal statement:
‘CHANGING SPACE is an ongoing collaborative project between artists Rosie Green, Aurelia Coster and Tessa Fox. Working within the constraints of a small white cube space in the Gunton’s building basement, the three artists are following to only one rule; constantly react to the space.
In bringing their own practices to the project and the lessened pressure of no end date or ‘final outcome’, the three hope that this will also strengthen their own work and potentially lead on to a much longer, extensive collaborative project.’
Roles and researchResearch;Visual Influences:• Fischli and Weiss (Untitled at the Tate)• Erwin Wurm (One minute Sculptures)• Angela De La CruiseTextual Research:• Maybe it would be better if we worked in groups of three? –
Liam Gillick• Conversation Art Pieces – Grant Kester• Poetics of Space – Gaston Bachelard• The White Cube, The Ideology of the Gallery Space - Brain
O’DohertyKey terms and themes:• Fluxis • Structured play • Space• Automatic drawing and artwork
ROLES;• Rosie & Aurelia: ‘Makers’ (artists)• Tessa: WriterNote: Due to time constraints of the course and other working projects, it was easier for Tessa to take a more freelance written role whilst dividing her time between other projects. Rosie and Aurelia were able to be more hands on with the project, changing and adapting when needed and bouncing ideas off each other. • Performance art
• Authorship• Structured play
Problems encountered and solved- ‘CHANGING SPACE is an ongoing collaborative project between artists Rosie Green, Aurelia Coster and Tessa Fox.’
- ‘The three artists are following to only one rule; constantly react to the space.’
- ‘In bringing their own practices to the project and the lessened pressure of no end date or ‘final outcome’, the three hope that this will also strengthen their own work and potentially lead on to a much longer, extensive collaborative project.’
• By setting an end date we gave the project a more respectful and professional approach, helping to round up all that had been learnt.
• Giving ourselves too much leniency with the project brief meant we felt we had no direct course to take. We instead set ‘rules’ or small brief to follow each day (varying from day-to-day). This gave us a sense of structured play in the project.
• We also began to treat the space as a ‘testing lab’; going against the formal constraints of a white cube space and subverting the entire concept of the white cube.
Conclusion
Taking it forward?
• Taking the project into an online exhibition
• Public interaction and involvement; moving out of a fine art space. Would audience participation change the dynamic?
