The Narrative
A modern gallery for a wealthy man wishing to provide society with a place containing art that is easy to understand.
The Art
- The Art style chosen was based around the work of Australian artist Robert Owen.
- In particular his work: Cadence #1 (a sort span of time)
- Cadence #1 was created through a very structured recording of Owen’s emotions every half hour over 80 days.
- The resulting artwork has over 2500 separate colour tones.
- Whilst effectively coded information, it is very easy to understand and relate to and viewers find themselves applying their own code to the colours.
