Sense my space

Project title: To sense my space

Project idea is to understand the distances, areas around, between or within components of a piece.  To explore the senses that create, define and interrupt our spaces.
Our experience of a space is influenced by many things: by knowledge of the functions of the space, by cultural associations, by memory and imagination. (Imagining space through sound C. McCombe)
Trying to understand and sense my space I looked at other artist work and way how they understand space and represent it in their work.

Richard Serra

Around 1970 Richard Serra became a leading artist of large scale site-specific sculptures. His site-specific works challenge viewers perception of their bodies in relation to interior spaces and landscapes, and his work often encourages movement in and around his sculptures. He plays with space and viewers expectations. He creates dialogue with a particular architectural, urban or landscape setting.

Rachel Whiteread

Many of Rachel Whiteread works are casts of ordinary domestic objects. She mainly focuses on line and form of her pieces. The space she works with often is objects "negative space".

Do-Hu-Suh

His work  draws attention to the ways viewers occupy and inhabit public space. Do-Hu-Suh defines space as transportable.

Antony Gormley

Most of his work is about human body and he uses his own body as subject and material in many of his works. His work attempts to treat the body not as an object but a place.

I also looked at some photographers work and their understanding of space, personal space. Leon Alesi "personal space" are images of people in their private environments. The exploration of their homes allow to see how they function within their space.
