Thank you to Dave, who helped me with the making of this piece. To find out more about Dave and his work follow the links. The following images are taken from a show called YouVweVyou. This show took place within the Elbow Rooms, an amemerican style pool room in Leeds. The show was created over three weeks and involved around thirteen artist who live and study in Leeds and the surrounding area. To see more images of the show follow the Link titled YouVweVyou. The two installations that I created where call "The Opening" and also "The Exquistite corpse". The Opening was an attempt at creating sculpture with a dirrect link to the specific nature of the venue. I hoped to embrace a frustrating activity and then once finished distroy but yet at the same time create a opening into the building and the show. The Exquisite Corpse, was also based on the nature of the Venue and was based of childrens story books. The Viewer was incouraged to stand in front of one of three cameras that where linked up to three projectors. Each camera was positioned at a certain hieght and in different places. This meant that when three people stood in front of the cameras, different parts of there body i.e Head, Chest and legs where then broadcast onto a large screen above the bar. This created alot of playfulness and fun.
