*SWITE

I've just been working on a project recently for uni thats confused me to no end. We were given a brief that has told us to promote an object or metaphor of white...

I've approached the brief by researching the cultural meanings of the 'colour' and found that white is acutally a symbol for death in the eastern cultures, but a symbol of purity, innocence and celebration in western culture.

I think (by this contradictory means) that I will create a design that promotes white as an exhibition of interpretations. A ficticious grouping of artwork by a myriad of artist that don't exist, presented in a gallery called *swite gallery or in the unabreviated form -> It's White Gallery.

I was thinking that I might call the exhibition the 'fragrance of white', giving the colour an essence that 'tantalises the senses'. For one of the examples of the work I just got the idea that I should create an artwork that is fixed around the idea that a world of black and white would be chaotic. Things like traffic lights would be turned into destructive tools through this emulation of an illusionary world.

I'm just puttin ideas in my head down to data, as I might forget if I don't

note to self: due date= 1st September .... get cracking!
