first exhibit

todays our first exhibit and my stuff is up and ready. im really excited to see everyones stuff and what people have been up to. ive seen a couple of things around and look really cool and fun. 

my presentation is set up to sort of resemble the pillars on which most of these inscriptions have been made (hence the column-like structure). i began with my storyboards which discuss the inscriptions in the context of time, and how through time they fade and loose volume. following i pinned up transparencies that i covered with graphite and left on site to weather a storm. they map out water flow down the pillars. after are 4 canvases, 2 which also show water flow down the pillars, and the remaining 2 demonstrate writings and water flow together. lasty there are 2 further experimentations: 1 which where squares drawn on concrete with chalk, and left for 24hrs on site. the second are a series of circles which where left on site for 1, 2, and 3 days. 

overall i think my presentation shows the effect of time on these writings…yet i wouldve like to do some other stuff. andrea gave me the idea to wrap the canvas around the entire pillar…in that way i would be capturing changes on the entire pillar…i thought it was great but didnt have enough time to make and setup the correct sized canvas and such…thanks andrea
