Room 106 - 10/01/12

Follow up n Steve M's suggestion of using Room 106 as next 'collage space'.
Room faces south and looks over Backhouse Park - wonderful ligh t/ silhouette effects as the low sun moves its way across the heavens.
Room approx 5.5m square and 3.2m in height.

Initial thoughts are to exploit the extraordinary and subtle quallity of light:

• glazed panel indoor provides link  between 'internal building space and Room 106
• changing shadows make complex patterns which often change swiftly ( links time and landscape perception)
• translucent coloured adhesive material -direct onto windows ( // stained glas) or layered onto  sherts of glass/ perspex, sequence of which can be changed/ overlapped etc   
• research Islamic/ Mogul screens
• Various light filtering /modifying devices- muslin/ trellice work
• Comntemplative qulaity of space- sacred colours ( Budism) , ecclesiastical purple
• Icons on shelves/ timber surrounds
• Hooks in ceiling- consider suspending items- upper layer?
• Electric sockets quite intrusive -can they be integraated in some way- plugs on back wall form a fairly gaceful arc!
• utilisation of gradations of colour up walls and across ceiling- controlled band trather than total room space?
•  use of artificial light- hours of darkness /sun not out /complementary
• coloured slides  or other projections onto wall space

First intervention

•  Pick up on module of door glazing and repeat along solid wall
• define by latts (as frame) and play with idea of light intensity increasing as progrees towards the large, park facing window.
• changing silhouette pattern as 'leitmotif'
