In our Arts and Identity mini course, we spent a lot of time exploring the Upper School gym and surrounding areas and discovering how we could play off of the gym's architecture, turning an ordinary space into art.
This photo is interesting because it has both horizontal and vertical composition lines. The scarves stretch across the space and unite the three individuals who are all in vertical positions. The blue boxes draw attention, and help to create different levels in the piece. Each individual is showing a different emotion with their body positioning and use of props.
This installation was very impromptu. We were given 10 seconds to fill the space of the bleachers before the photographer would document it. It was very interesting how we all created a diagonal line with our bodies without a group effort. Each individual helps to create the diagonal line which draws the viewer's eye around the piece and forces them to take all of the image in.
This photo was taken in the stained glass hallway. This was also a 10-second installation. We all found creative ways to utilize the white boxes all through the hall. When a viewer walked through the installation, they saw each individual in greater detail and could see how each individual interpreted the space and utilized the props found inside it.
