IDEAS IDEAS.......

OK my problem is i have far too many ideas... So to help with that i either jot them down or sketch them...

In my head I have a clear plan for my FMP.. which is. a white wall with 4 of my faces expression less(all though its been pointed out that even expressionless is an expression), 4 I then intend to places words in written in white paper over them,,, (meaning the viewer has to look closer at the faces)

In front of that is a plinth. with a piece of glass balanced over the edge.( this is to represent the fragile balancing act of emotions n moods in fact my life)

Playing over the plinth and over the faces is a video of the plinth n glass, with the glass falling and breaking and it the reverses in a continuing loop...

the sound playing will be a messed up noise of anxiety, emotions and humour. 

Ok you got the idea?

Here are a few things i have been looking at..

1/ the plinth.. Do i keep it plain.. Nah,, so like i have mentioned i have been looking at plaster and how to make it appear fragile... The bubble effect is not working as i mentioned, blowing air in to setting plaster has little or no effect... baking power, although impressive reaction with the plaster is still leaves no visible bubbles..  Finally i tried ice( see pics)


 what a waste of time, i would have imagined the heat from the setting plaster would have melted the ice,, to b honest it had little effect on the ice.. what the ice did achieve was a very slow setting process for the plaster and a lot of excess water.. back to the drawing board wth this one... 







I also looked a casting boxes( i felt it was not original, i am thinking Rachel Whiteread)

One thing i would like to do is cast a plinth with a number of my faces looking into the plinth rather than outwards... mmmm might look in to that..
