i haven't made anything since i finished that last piece. well i have blown glass and made some components and i have been thinking about what to do next, but i haven't really done much. i guess you need that space to reboot in between finishing off one thing and moving onto the next thing.
i have been procrastinating on this installation for the show. i must get back onto it. i will aim to have it compete for the end of this year.
but while i do this piece i also need to be thinking ahead to my another piece as well. after finishing off the F1 Hybrid piece with the tractor image on it from my last post, i have been thinking about doing another piece that is the opposite of that one.
the idea i have so far is that there will be lots of different images in the background of mechanised things, machines, tools, etc. that part is easy. the part i am having difficulty with is thinking about what image would represent the garden.
this is what i want to ask you. what could be the image to use to represent garden and be the opposite of the tractor image?
flowers...? isn't that the opposite of metal and machine? or a plant. i don't know, you're the artist!
ReplyDeletehow about rows of vegetables out in the field
ReplyDeleteWell, a tractor cuts plant materials, or hauls them, and is mobile. What about something that stores the garden items that is non-mobile...like a BARN.
ReplyDeletehow about a turnip? leaves and root still attatched? a dirty turnip even, nothing is more subversive than the lowly turnip. he, he, he (cackling evily all the way from canada)
ReplyDeleteWhat about a farmer? It could be you decked out in farmer's grub.
ReplyDeleteI think I meant garb, not grub!
