Group = Kate, Naomi, Hannah, Megan & Heidi  (Graphics, Illustration, Painting, Photography)

• Possible concept for exhibition in space
• A number of group members would like to include their own work for exhibition. Personally I would not, unless it was needed. Interested in PR, Marketing and promotion side of things.
• Show and tell images etc -

Decadence

Alexy Brodovitch

Mixed Media

Deanne Chuck

Crafted Space

Ophelia

Filigree

Nudes & bondage

Object connections

B movie, exploitation flicks

Can we draw something from these group interests and into the space?

• Cross disciplinary boundaries

• Theme idea 1.  Last days of decadence

Decadence comes from the Latin word cadere - which means to fall. It is the beautiful way to fall. It’s a very slow movement which has lots of beauty. It can be a kind of self killing in a beautiful way, a tragic way.– Viktor Wynd

would tie in with the red and gold interior of our space. Commission work, source artists and designers who work with this theme. Performances and bands…Panther girls dancers, Glamcanyon. Art Deco, 20s vibe more like a club night.

WE NEED A STRONG THEME AND RESPONSE TO THE SPACE -It’s slightly problematic that we have a space before the concept…should really have done it the other way around.

……………………………….

Lack of movement forward, lots of discussions and visit to site but nothing concrete emerged from this.

Grasping straws, concept proposal to be refined and realise:

Megan -

“Have been brainstorming some ideas with friends and have come up with some ideas!

I was thinking that we needed a loose enough theme that we can actually get this done in time. I was thinking interaction. The way individual works interact within them selves, the process and the finished product. The was the art works interact with the space. Also interaction between different works and medias in one small space. Also interaction with audience, exhibition experience. Interaction of senses, with visual and audio.

I know this is me forcing my idea on you all, but it’s not in that way, I just realised that we havnt done anything and we are seriously running out of time.

We don’t have to worry when the exhibition will be or too much about that we just need a good proposal and some outlines which I think we could do with this.

If you totally hate everything I have said feel free to say so and offer up some ideas but it needs to be this week.

Otherwise if u think we could do something with all this that would be fab. ”

• Possibility but needs to be much clearer and refined, concept a little jumbled, simplify it down and pull out core elements.
