I dont have a digi-cam so i apologize for the look of the drawing. I was thinking lately more about ghosts as imagery, that the white makes us kind of like spirits. also
i love the idea of the suit being armor for battle. that holds so many different meanings, and thats part of why i am in love with it. ... i may want to still do a shield, and i am thinking of ideas for what the shield could be made out of. also i wanted to document that i feel the rocket represents our lives while the string that binds us is reality and society.

I like the drawing... I definitely see the paintball mask we talked about; is this going to be part of it? The shadow on the image is very intriguing... think about that relationship between the (organic to geometric forms) and (technological to bodily): ie, the phone and hand shadow and the goggles/mask to the body. I think there is a whole conversation there, that with this project we are involved in at least partially: ie (rocket to man)
ReplyDeleteMy first reactions to the word "ghosts" is:
The movements of the little ghost in the pac-man game. And from your post, I think it may be wise to move into the magic wand game/performance with the radiator head.
What about our lives and society? Maybe you would like to share a personal anecdote of how you personally are relating to this piece's symbolism.
I thought that your interpretation during the meeting was very poignant and on the mark, but i would like you to expand on this...especially poetically. :p
