Like the Datura Lilly, with its long tubular flower, and the humming bird, with its long, thin curved beak. No other bird can collect the pollen from this flower. </div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>So I set out to create a space, to "grow" a space, for my body. The space, therefore enacts a process of selection. Not every one can access the inner circle of the space. To do so you have a few choices: scale the 2.5 - 4 meter wall, enter at street level, via a trap door, through a slide or commando style (crawling on your belly, using your elbows to pull you forward and through. Like a flower to a bee, the space will coat you, in this case with plaster dust. </div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>A leap of faith and physical prowess are a prerequisite of entry.</div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>In the central space there is a bed you are invited to lie back in. It of course is moulded to by body. When reclined sensors pick up your presence and light up the interior of the adjacent large spore-like forms with a eerie red glow. This is the space's way of encouraging you to put your hands and feet inside. </div><div><i><br /></i></div><div>Thus making the union complete.</div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span></div><div><b>Sound</b></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>Sound Artist Keith Netto, visited the cellar space several times to record the sounds of construction, as well as the atmospheric sounds (the screeching of the trams as they turned the corner, the murmurs of voices and vehicles passing by...). Keith joined me in the space for a good part of the final month, recording, mixing and reworking sounds. I built a subwoof speaker into the wall, like a black pulsating pearl. We noticed that some of the hidden wirework vibrated, so that the space began to "respond" to the sound. So I added a network of wires, behind the walls, to extend the sound experience further. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>Process</b></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>The work is located in a cellar space, beneath what was the Police Hospital around the 1920's, where autopsies on the convicts were conducted. The space has a dark history and energy.</div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>When I first gained access to the space it had an earth floor, above was the underbelly of the building above, about 180 cm high, with a network of pipes suspended below, providing services to the building above.</div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>The first six months I was required to work outside of business hours, to prevent the noise of my building interrupting the daily activities of the Pilates Studio above. This meant working alone, through the night and on the weekends. </div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>During that time I excavated with a mattock and shovel, buildt retaining walls and trenches, to completely transform the typography of the space. By the time I was completed you could walk through tight deep passageways, a meter and a half below ground level. No earth was removed, it was rearranged. </div><div>For the last three months I hand mixed and applied about a tonne of plaster to coat the structures and sculpt the surfaces of the space.</div><div><br /></div><div>I would like to add that this work nearly killed me. </div><div>I do not say that lightly.</div><div>I also think it is by far the worst thing I have ever made.</div><div><br /></div><div>The title <i>Full Circle</i> is about the recurring of ideas and desires.</div></div>Aliey Ballhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07581638103828701924noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6851114982363671066.post-81242379106781888192010-03-13T02:55:00.000-08:002010-03-18T23:35:16.783-07:00My Best Egg Yet 1998<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjH29lfuIglcI540Dv9yu8J1p0uPkd44yIwW5pAzN331HYXKCkizhhuluXAgSGwO2UVjfYsClllZjfVCHcfeT7WBXi2NY_nAkJ2Ctrc75J4NFW2cRguW6VynoAxFtzPJdjfZeJzzMWR-fI/s1600-h/My-Best-Egg-Yet-1998.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 209px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjH29lfuIglcI540Dv9yu8J1p0uPkd44yIwW5pAzN331HYXKCkizhhuluXAgSGwO2UVjfYsClllZjfVCHcfeT7WBXi2NY_nAkJ2Ctrc75J4NFW2cRguW6VynoAxFtzPJdjfZeJzzMWR-fI/s320/My-Best-Egg-Yet-1998.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5450229594900292370" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKNuHhNxbrMFAlJmc45IwvsSxLLe0a3jEMWibqNJGDBkPBzqi_x0zX5wlCTpdWKcGFZ7BVPy2x6i7R5V3Xw8PlRxKcxHB__8Y9g1zFkjcK15I5y1krExJyWmwLCd3ZpfXR5UX5lq7mL1s/s1600-h/mybesteggyet.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 210px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKNuHhNxbrMFAlJmc45IwvsSxLLe0a3jEMWibqNJGDBkPBzqi_x0zX5wlCTpdWKcGFZ7BVPy2x6i7R5V3Xw8PlRxKcxHB__8Y9g1zFkjcK15I5y1krExJyWmwLCd3ZpfXR5UX5lq7mL1s/s320/mybesteggyet.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5448074998368506722" /></a><div style="text-align: center;"><i><br /></i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>Plaster, bamboo, steel, hesian and paint</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>Dimensions variable</i></div><div style="text-align: left;">A permanent, site-specific installation, commissioned by the (then) Director of Victorian College of the Arts, located in the Directorate stairwell.</div><div>This work is about the size and shape of a killer whale.

The first, on your left as you enter the windowless space, has its head down, the next raises its head slightly, lifts a foreleg...through to a gallop, when all four legs leave the ground for a brief moment, then slowing down again to a halt to return to the door.<div>Each horse is housed within a timber box, rather like a series of film stills. Concurrently running along the edges of the room are thousands of pieces of bamboo, from tiny thin twigs graduating through to the largest at 3-4 meters. The bamboo leans into the corners and through its placement creates cardiogram-like forms, which increase and decrease in size to match the implied speed of the horses.</div>Aliey Ballhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07581638103828701924noreply@blogger.com0
