My first idea failed miserably. The video files kept on being wiped out completely, I may not be technologically savvy but what I lack in computer skills I make up for in other marvelous ways! I present the piece de resistance!...idiot moron failure asshole douchebag. --- --- --- P R O P O S A L --- --- --- For my final project I have tossed around a few ideas in my head, due to time management as well as financial issues, I was unable to properly and completely complete my first idea of a film based installation with audio components However, my new idea is much simple to construct for a technological dunce such as myself and more fine tuned. I plan to have a sculptural installation in the centre of the room; I plan to use a single red floodlight to backlight my installation. I would also like to have an audio component playing over speakers. --- --- --- A R T I S T I C S T A T E M E N T --- --- My piece is entitled Dashed Hopes and with it I hope to convey a message. The message is this "you do not have to keep the labels that society may give you like douchebag or failure, you always have a choice, wether it be suicide, or whistling." I believe that in choosing the audio track from Pinnochio I have made the piece more juevenile more youthful. The main focal points are lit in an eerie fashion by the bold red floodlight from behind. Overall I hope that you can see in Dashed Hopes what I saw in it when putting it together.
