YO.
Having an extremely stressful few days as I am burying my head in the sand when it comes to this project as I am not feeling it at all. I have good days but mostly bad days when I genuinely want to start the whole project again. I am struggling with the photography element, my strongest point that so far I have not included at all...shit. This is what is really stressing me out, but I am also stressing over the cost of the flowers for my original idea - a free standing 3D installation that would require thousands of flowers.... talking £2,000 upwards for a piece of work that wont even last a god damn week. NO THANKS.
On a brighter note, I did visit the Modern Contemporaries at the RSA which was a collection of the best work from the graduates last year. I was actually surprised by the choices as I was sure I had seen work in the degree shows last year that were a lot more creative and interesting... but maybe that's my taste.
I hope that eventually the Art and Design degree at Forth Valley College is invited to display pieces of work. I am definitely going to make sure to invite the RSA members to our degree show event.
Anyways, moving back to this headache of a project, I have decided to look into the possibility of making the installation a bit more cost effective but also surprisingly more relevant to the message I want to convey - using a waterfall..a symbol of energy and representative of life.
