Roshai Barrett [light drawings]
SERIES 8
Criteria = every decision needs to be justified apart from during the process of making
Need = a fluid medium uninhibited by the medium or the space
Space = does not limit gesture, neutral influence
Medium = light in a darkened space
Light = a symbolic medium that has many connotations
Darkness = needed for light to exist to create work
Create = a way to visualise a thought process
Thought = the unseeable and all elements and aspects of it recorded
Record = the element and variation of conscious or subconscious physical responses
Physical Response = captured for presentation to the audience
Presentation = should not add to or take away from how the artwork is experienced
Experience = dependant on size and positioning
Positioning = connected to the ground with a physical presence reflecting how it was made
Reflection = public representation of own thoughts
In the confusion there is clarity, which results in success.
