The exhibition date was 18th of March in Hundred years gallery. We just set up our work from afternoon on 17th of March. And this is a map(picture above) shows where we took in the exhibition. I was on the right corner. There were film, sculpture, cloth and performance in the exhibition. These diverse type of works make place seems bit tight to have everyone's work, but it was very dynamic exhibition.
This is my installation in the exhibition. I have just printed images of Photopainting on cancas, paper, transparent paper and textiles. And just spread out them all on floor. Printing same images on different materials was kind of experiment on boundary of art. Each of materials have very different looking with the fake oil painting images 'Photopainting'. I wanted to people just step on papers that I spread on floor, but they hesitated to step on that papers. That behaving of viewers was very interesting to comprehend how people care about art work.
This is Karen's work. She just actually paint during the exhibition as performance. And her performance was just conducted right next to my work. It was interesting to see the actual painting action next to fake oil painting image.
My installation in the exhibition was experiment on boundary of art, but I am not pretty sure about what I was trying to say with this work. Some people just asked me 'did you paint this painting?', and some other people just believe that is real oil painting. I think that viewer's perspective on this experiment was what I wanted to see. Their hesitation and recognition were the most interesting things to think about boundary of art.
