I went to Sam Burns (scrap yard) to gather some inspiration for my work this Semester. Walking through the site I noticed gates and griddles, implements and objects used to constrain and divide. I couldn’t help but think of the current regulations imposed on the public by the government, stressing for isolation and separation.
Certainly, I find the idea of SEPARATION really interesting- particularly how we separate ourselves and divide space and the concurrent mental affects of such actions.
The theme of containment of space and of people’s actions with no effect/success I also find interesting. It is both humorous and frustrating. Despite best efforts (although this is certainly questionable) of the government at the moment, certain groups in society are disregarding regulations and progress seems to be back-tracking, much to the despair of those diligently following them.
THE ATTEMPT AT CONTAINMENT WITH NO SUCCESS could also therefore be something I look at this semester…
