NOTES_

Abstract- Discuss the method I have developed for making work, through descriptions of 3 works, which engage directly with the audience. Then analysis these works through the my research. Conclude with questions this raises and what my research/practice can move towards.

STATEMENT/INTRO The central theme in my practice is human behaviour and how it is affected by the surrounding environment. Taking inspiration from psychological experiemnts, interiors and social events, I create site and situation specific installations as settings tob e inhabited and activated by an audience.

Discuss WORKS

(FUTILE) FACILITY (me)

I installed myself as a living exhibit, in the Ulster Museum, in Belfast, for 28 days. I confined myself to a beige bedsit, eating only beige food and wearing beige clothes. I constantly watched documentaries on screens built into the furniture. This, and any visitors were the only sources of colour and new information in the room. In response tot his situation I made collages, maps, diagrams, dummies and interventions (using only beige materials). The bedsit changed throughout the experiment reflecting my mental state (sometimes deciptively). Beginning as an ordered and minimal environment, it slowly descended into chaotic squalor, then a fort and finally a semi-organised ‘kingdom’. With this work I wanted to directly inhabit my work, and use myself as the subject for various experimentation
