The first seminar after holiday, small territory group had a meeting for presentation in Tate. In the morning session, we have just talked about new works we made during holiday. Then, we just started to talk about how we present. An idea we decided to use is from Sasha member of our territory group. She made a new work called 'Shoes Box Gallery'. She just set up fake gallery in shoes box, and taking a picture to make it looks like real size of gallery. In the first time I saw her pictures, I have not noticed that is shoes box gallery. This kind of idea, playing with scale was the main idea we decided for presentation.
So this is bigger box gallery we made for shooting. We just printed our work and stick on wall. And I just pierce a square hole to use my Iphone as screen for my animation work. For shooting inside of box, we were using Gopro camera which is pretty tiny camera. We tried lots of shoots to have better video which people can not really notice that is miniature gallery. We also put huge lights for more natural video.
So this is our final work for presentation. For pretending that this video is just presenting usual gallery, we just include very natural background music which is very smooth and calm. After that, we had kind of hard time to choose how to finish this video. It was really hard to expect reaction of someone who watch this video first time, because we make this fake gallery and watched video so many times. That videos just look like a fake gallery for us. However, when we show this video to tutor group, we just realized that most of people can not really notice that is not a real gallery. So our final decision was exposure the truth of gallery we made in the end of video. It took longer time than we expected, but it was fun. And understanding perspective of others who does not know about truth was unexpected interesting things.
