Widows Project Ideas

These are sketches for three separate projects around the Widows work.

The first is a reverse lighting situation, of the interactive book/video - triggered by infra-red and lit from inside (below) the book.

The second project is a variation of the projected piece, to be projected on a brick wall outside, with multiple layers of me drawing alone with a live performance of the chalk piece.

This third sketch is the first rendition of my thesis project, involving a simple black room, with a black bar or trough, filled with black sand.  Drawing in the black sand represents the futility and grief.  The darkness.  Perhaps a fan slowly blows away the lines, smoothing out the marks.  the walls, ceiling, floor are covered in a sand paint that will hold chalk line.  Over the duration of the exhibit, lines will be added to the entire surface of the room, creating a lightness out of the dark.  If possible the light will slowly increase in the room, until it becomes all lightness, perhaps blindingly light.
