things for uni go here

quick install shots before hand in 

Figuring out how to use the space. I really like the two flowers together, but it’s also really cute when they are across the room from each other and one peeks out from behind the t wall near the door. It also allows a bit more floor space and room around the paintings on the walls around.

We decided against having the hand facing the door where you enter because it was almost too aggressive and a bit gross. I like that it now points in the direction you’d follow through the exhibition, like a big arrow.

I am concerned about the cord leading to it though. I like the idea of it running along the floor. Like a bull culbert! But I have a feeling that will be a no go health and safety wise. Which means either taping it down, or moving it closer to the wall....

At the moment the polar bear is closer to the back of the room. I like that (with the sheet on too) it has a storage kind of vibe. Although I do worry that you aren’t meant to put sculpture near a wall? Would be better to have more space to walk around it....

Definitely better without bandage.

The original had a bandage cover thing on the joint but it wasn’t working on this one. Made it creepier.

Has been interesting trying to decide when to match the originals and When to make my own choices about the looks.

Tried making this bandage cover to cover up the joint of the finger (like on the original) but I think it actually just makes it creepier & exaggerates the over extension of the finger.

I think it will be better without..

I wanted to try and fix the over extension but it’s actually a really big job to get inside the hand to adjust the lever and patch it up again
