Installing day eight

Trusting and working with the process of making art is always interesting, and maybe more so when collaborating. The work has moved through multiple iterations over the last seven days. But in doing so, it has come to a new place of its own. 

The space has been wrapped and teased out. We have tied 2000m of string in neat double knots around tree trunks. We have wrapped long eucalypt limbs with careful threaded glowing colour,  Wrapped elements have been added in to the site and then taken away. Everyday we have worked for seven or more hours on an aspect of the work. Not everything works and parts we have spent many hours on have been discarded as the whole dictates its needs. The work evolves, and seems to need to take on its own life.

It is great when the parts that work for us, also work for other people passing by. This front section has become a colour field play ground.

The work is becoming immersive, which is making it interesting. 

Tomorrow is the final day for installation, a day to approach it with fresh eyes.
