For Metal Show next week on Tuesday 10th i have decided to frame marks on the floor by tracing marks that i could see through the glass. This way i am bringing them out from the floor, making them stand out and come to life.
I have practised with marks in the studio and found out that tracing large marks that come out of the frame works best as suddenly you can see the way the mark carries on and not just sits inside the frame. By tracing a bigger mark that carries on outside the frame it becomes highlighted and stands out from the rest.
In Metal there is a big square in the middle of the room which i want to highlight and bring out from the rest of the marks and stains. I want to work with the space and highlight what is already there.
I am still unsure how many frames i am going to go for but i think i can work with that on the spot, depending on other work that is around the space. Because it doesn't take a long time to set up i think i can make decisions right there and then.
I tried putting frames on top of each other to see what it looks like and i really like the layered look of the marks. Framed box?!
