I would then use the colors and shapes told by each visitor (viewing the sculpture) to decide the colors and shapes of a 2D sculpture. Each color and shape would connect to each other according to how the image of a 2D sculpture, the direction the visitor takes around the sculpture, documented with video, (left, right, up, down) decides the placement of each colored shape in relation to the other shapes in the image.

Elleke's intuitive approach to playing with two- and three-dimensionality makes for an interesting mix of impressions when looked at. Her ideas on Qi are not yet fully explained in relation to the sculptures; I might take a stab at tying Qi to impressions of images and shapes. I believe that she would like to show the interlinkedness between twodimensionality and threedimensionality through the process of impression and association, of punctum and studium.

Notes on Ellecke's thesis

  • Interventions (social)
  • Adressing surroundings (Situations, Interventions, Deterioration)
  • Situations (into the landscape)
  • Deterioration
  • Magical Realism
  • Structures (interventions)
  • Social (interventions)
  • Concrete poetry
  • Magical realism
  • Barthes, Camera Obscura

Thoughts after interview with Elleke

  • Her work is intuitive, her ideas are formed and expressed by sculpting and photographing
  • Her main topic is to bring sculpture to photography, by playing around with the threedimensionality of photographies. Her sculptures flip this around; here instead she plays with the twodimensionality of sculptures.
  • She no longer ties her work to her father, but instead more closely relates her practice of creating threedimensionality in 2D-surfaces and twodimensionality in 3D-shapes
  • Her sculptures are meant to be walked around, changing shape and color as you move around them
  • The direction at which each visitor travels around the sculptures could also be interesting to document, as they would each have a different experience of the sculptures

Final Artifact of Documentation

Process:

  • Using video to capture the transitions in shape of the sculptures, in different directions. I would ask if a visitor/participant would walk around it and audio-record and video-tape their impressions
  • Elleke's sculptures are highly personal, but are also highly intuitive to the on-looker: short questions (about what color, shape) they think of when they look at the sculpture
    • What shape do you see?
    • What color do you see?

Equipping sound recorders for each visitor while filming the installation-space:

  1. This would allow me to record their responses to the earlier mentioned questions about shape and color.
  2. The video-documentation of the space would allow me to document the direction visitors take around the sculpture

I would then use the colors and shapes told by each visitor (viewing the sculpture) to decide the colors and shapes of a 2D sculpture. Each color and shape would connect to each other according to how the image of a 2D sculpture, the direction the visitor takes around the sculpture, documented with video, (left, right, up, down) decides the placement of each colored shape in relation to the other shapes in the image.

Concept:

Elleke's intuitive approach to playing with two- and three-dimensionality makes for an interesting mix of impressions when looked at. Her ideas on Qi are not yet fully explained in relation to the sculptures; I might take a stab at tying Qi to impressions of images and shapes. I believe that she would like to show the interlinkedness between twodimensionality and threedimensionality through the process of impression and association, of punctum and studium. By documenting the visitor's process of interacting with the sculpture, and interpreting the impression as they move into colors and shapes, the visitors create their own sculptures out of their impressions with Elleke's sculptures.

This documentation would be focused on her large steel sculpture as it seems to be the most striking of the sculptures.

Prototype

  • [1] Video-recording of sculpture in studio

Questions to Elleke

  • Will your sculpture rotate or will it be still?
  • Which sculpture should I choose for this documentation?
  • Will the visitor be able to move around the sculpture freely?
