Task 5-

Untitled (One Hundred Spaces) is currently apart of Rachel Whitereads exhibition at the tate, created using coloured resin she has moulded the underneath of a chair, which forms into a square objects with all of the different grooves within them due to the different chairs that she has used, you can see from the markings that some of the chairs were worn and old from the maybe not so perfect moulds. With each being different colours you can see a range of pastel tones, making the blocks seem almost transparent and very fragile, they reminded me almost of honey, from where you can see through them but it is hazy and very unclear.

 

The thing that drew me the most to these was that as a collective from afar you can see how similar they all are, harmonious together, then the close you get you can see each individual groove in the blocks, which makes them all suddenly separate from each other in one way or another. They way they were placed out showed each one for itself, with their spaces between being marked out evenly the show itself was satisfying before even seriously focusing on the main subject itself. After leaving the exhibition this piece always stuck in my mind, it inspired me with my own colours, making me think a lot more about how I wanted my work to compliment with other pieces that I would produce.
