So i've been experimenting with some images of my work in photoshop and placing them in areas that would not suit them just to see how bizarre they would look there. Some are in the sculpture park, some are on bill boards and others are in shop fronts. I think because the nature of my work, they do not fit these particular locations. I think for something such as the mannequins, they belong in a gallery space rather than outdoors plus I think people with small children would not appreciate there kids being exposed to this form of art. Although I do think it would be quite interesting to see what other peoples reactions would be.
I think these look very interesting. Sometimes by pushing the boundaries of taste you get to see where the 'edge' of society's morality lies. Some art stays in the concept stage and never needs to be actually made. Christo's exhibitions are often of proposals, not all of which are ever realised.
