| Idea for the project comes from last years project of creating an artwork using a whole room. In The field of memories I wanted to create a space that would physically represent my own performance of the workings of memory and nostalgia. [<< please unpack this and explain more what you mean] For this piece, I assembled two objects with mirrors on which the video would be projected, and the effect of the mirrors would scatter the projection around the space all around the viewer, making it impossible to see the whole picture at once. A video projected on the mirrors would be a composition of short videos i took throughout a whole year, as the installation would be a showcase of my experiences. Each video no longer than 10 seconds, would be scattered around the room, where a viewer would only see separate peaces of the whole picture, like as in my perception of understanding a memory. as a person remembers a story again and again, each new time one remembers the last time remembering it. I understand that slowly some pieces become forgotten, and the remained are changing their shape. In similar way as nostalgia works, when a memory could have changed into something positive in the moment of remembering it, whereas in reality the situation was different.
| | |
|
| |
|
| Viewer could only focus on separate pieces, sometimes only one, sometimes on three, lying closer to each other, but still from a different parts of the entirety. I wouldn't not want a viewer to know the whole story, or what exactly it was about, but more a wonder from him, or embracing him to connect whatever pieces he sees into his own story. As he would remember the whole installation later, just some flashes in his memory of that day, and not every literal step.
| | Gardens are a quick escape to nature and can help you to change an environment rapidly whithin the grayness of the city. In the country of Slovenia, where I come from, the garden is an important part of living space. Slovenian gardens strive for the fullness of greenery, they usually have space for an outdoor table for warmer days and a part of the garden that is intended for growing home-grown vegetables and fruits. |
|
| |
|
|
| | <br> |
|
| |
|
| For my proposed project Space I'm going to need two walls. One will act as a green screen and the other as a surface for projection. The green screen will be projected on the opposite wall showing only white background. When the visitor enters, the camera will detect the loss of green screen data, the visitor's silhouette will be projected on the wall with a projection, and an image covered with whiteness will be revealed in the silhouette. The visitor will have to '''scan''' the entire space and explore it as well with their body in order to reveal the image.

|
| | I moved to Rotterdam in September 2020. I live in a multi-apartment house in Oud-Charlois, of which the apartments face the central space. The apartments on the ground floor have their own gardens, as it is quite common for residential buildings in Dutch urbanism. We live in an apartment with no garden, but have a great view on some of them. Observing happenings on gardens and their characters, the comparison to Slovenian customs is quite different. |

| ''[<<OK this is shows a clear intention to make something. I would advise that you prototype this NOW and bring the results of your experiment to the proposal seminar (when you show your proposal to the other tutors) and to the GRS. Such occasions usually go well if you have something to show and you demonstrate that you are engaged in a process and that this process has a relation to the things you have made before.]

| | |
|
| |
| | |
|
| |
| | |
| [Note on what you have written : in the piece with the mirrors and the proposed piece, you make "it impossible to see the whole picture at once". What benefit is in that , for you? What affect do you expect it to have on the viewer? I suspect it has something to do with allowing the viewer - the person who inhabits the space- to explore the space or the image; to put the pieces back together, to orientate the space. If that is the case, what is the advantage of that, for you?.]''
| |
| | |
|
| |
| | |
| VERY IMPORTANT: what image will you project and why? Actually you could apply different images. What are the possibilities of experimenting with different image? Images of the space we are in?; images of other spaces? &c.]

|
| |
|
| Each room offers a specific usability, kitchen for cooking, office for work, hallway for connecting different rooms. Each of these spaces contain different furniture and facilities for the realisation of the spatial purpose, and at the same time they specify the users stay in the space. I want to set up a space whose purpose is to use the space itself, so therefore I am thinking that there would be no facilities in it for the visitor to focus on. If there would be, they would be different thing to help and encourage them to use the space. A ladder for instance. Every user of every space, with the course of his actions, movement and relation, co-creates that very space.
| | Gardens are a specific space of living environment and their state depends on weather, skills and engagement of the residents. I will be researching people's relation to gardens and the connection to nature in the Netherlands. |
|
| |
|
| I want a viewer to be interactive within the space I set up. As an architectural photographer I investigate the space people inhabit, space people create, trying to present it again through own eyes. An experiment of finding a place in the space and, because it gives you a specific experience.
| | Approach: |
| | <br> |
|
| |
|
| To accomplish that, the revealed image will be the one encouraging the viewer, it is important what will it be. I have a lot of different options to choose from, and I want to connect it to the research with people and their gardens. Therefore, I cannot and won't make a specific statement of what will it be, but leave it to experimenting and developing throughout next few months.
| | I will visit people’s homes and interview them about gardens. The questions will vary whether they have a garden or not. After the interview I will take photographs of the gardens and juxtapose them next to each other, so I will have a good overview of them all. With the analysis of the interviews and the overview and reading of photographs I will be able to make out a better understanding of how the spaces are being used. |
| | <br> |
|
| |
|
| This proposal is an option for my creation which might not be used in its fullest at the end.
| | For now, the outcome of the project will be a photobook with all the documentation I can get. |
| | <br> |
|
| |
|
| | | I have experience in architectural photography, of which knowledge I will apply into taking the photographs. I am expecting a different result as the situations and circumstances will be altered, due to time restriction and contrasted subject matter to my usual tidied up practice of newly built accommodations. |

| Part of the exhibition space will be dedicated to exhibit space - some kind of utopia. For how i percieve it is a never ending cycle. One falling into itself, becoming one again and falling into itself again,… A space that stands only for its own purpose of space thus serves its purpose, which, however, is no greater than what it is. It is ideal for itself and for visitors, but only when they are the users.

No matter what it is, it is intended and structured for users. So without them, it is a useless, space-consuming space. However, the space can change its role several times in a shorter or longer period of time, and each time it offers the user new experiences.

| For the final project, I would like to create a space for quick use, with a strong visual effect. The whole concept, however, is that the space only comes to life when a visitor enters it. So I point out that space and user are interdependent.

GARDENS
My project proposal goes along with the thesis hand in hand, so the two of them form each other.
Who are my neighbours?
Keywords: neighbours, gardens, private, public space, nature
Gardens are a quick escape to nature and can help you to change an environment rapidly whithin the grayness of the city. In the country of Slovenia, where I come from, the garden is an important part of living space. Slovenian gardens strive for the fullness of greenery, they usually have space for an outdoor table for warmer days and a part of the garden that is intended for growing home-grown vegetables and fruits.
I moved to Rotterdam in September 2020. I live in a multi-apartment house in Oud-Charlois, of which the apartments face the central space. The apartments on the ground floor have their own gardens, as it is quite common for residential buildings in Dutch urbanism. We live in an apartment with no garden, but have a great view on some of them. Observing happenings on gardens and their characters, the comparison to Slovenian customs is quite different.
Gardens are a specific space of living environment and their state depends on weather, skills and engagement of the residents. I will be researching people's relation to gardens and the connection to nature in the Netherlands.
Approach:
I will visit people’s homes and interview them about gardens. The questions will vary whether they have a garden or not. After the interview I will take photographs of the gardens and juxtapose them next to each other, so I will have a good overview of them all. With the analysis of the interviews and the overview and reading of photographs I will be able to make out a better understanding of how the spaces are being used.
For now, the outcome of the project will be a photobook with all the documentation I can get.
I have experience in architectural photography, of which knowledge I will apply into taking the photographs. I am expecting a different result as the situations and circumstances will be altered, due to time restriction and contrasted subject matter to my usual tidied up practice of newly built accommodations.
There are 84 apartments, of which 42 are ground floors with gardens.
I don’t count on everyone to participate.
If they have a garden:
What does a garden mean to you?
What are you using it for?
How often do you use it?
What would your ideal garden look like?
Do you use a shed?
When buying an apartment, did you specifically look for an apartment with a garden?
What do you think about the idea of a common space / garden?
Do you know your neighbors?
How often do you go out of the city with a purpose of visiting nature?
If they do not have a garden:
What does a garden mean to you?
Would you like to have it?
What would you use it for?
Do you use a shed?
What would your ideal garden look like?
What do you think about these gardens?
If you could, would you change anything?
Do you use a balcony and for what?
What do you think about the idea of a common space / garden?
Do you know your neighbors?
How often do you go out of the city with a purpose of visiting nature?
I will leave the next steps to the outcome of the interviews.
