Granted it's a process show, but I like finishing things before showing them off to the public.
I have a list of things to do before I can put up my work, one of which is find a place that will print my bigger stuff (one being very long and double-sided and registered correctly).
Here is the large accordion thing I made:
And here is the image that will go on it:
Each divided area is of course on its own panel, coming together to form an image from two angles. The thing I really like is I'm playing off the scale of the piece and how it should be looked at, and using only 6dpi on the image. This makes the image very pixelated with pixels 1/4" big.
I organized the rest of my mobile pics, but I'm not sure how I want to display them. They definetly have to do with the rest of my work, it's about travel, and seeing, or not seeing, and documenting, and remembering, etcetc. At least that's what I get out of it. An idea I had is to mount them on foam or whatever and have them stretched across a single line at a certain height. Another is to group them grid-like, like I have with the contact sheets. Right now they're about 3" wide and 2" tall or so. I'd appriciate some input on that.
I did a design for a personal invitation and now just need to print them, cut them, and come up with the list of people I want to send them to. I know I have a good deal of addresses that I need! The finished size (folded into a book) is 4.25" x 2.75" so I also need to find some sort of envelope that would fit those well. And then mail them out. This I should probably work on soon so people have time before the show. I believe Scott M is working on an idea for the group card or such. Something about ninja poses...or something...
Oh yes, and we have a title for the show: First come, first served.
*Just had an idea for using data from all my trips...maps: pins, string, labels. I don't know, I think strange things when I'm tired.
Update again tomorrow after class.
