Try 2 - 5 Objects - Andra Antone


Replaced

bottle --> wire – claustrophobic, tight, helpless, endless, persistent, suffocation, density of air, heavy to breath.

hair clip --> balloons – no shape unless there is an applied force, malleable, easy to persuade, yet hopeless………..round-ish, satisfied in their form, relaxed, pushed by an external influence. They brake under the same force that give their shape.



Try 1 - 5 Objects - Andra Antone

1.Matches – mechanism of friction, a violent m
ovement, a movement of consumption, fire, wood, earth, intensity, madness.


2.Bottle - water, thirst, necessity, maintaining the human
3.Video Tape - linear time, makes sens only from one point of view: from beginning to the end, the scenery is set. no option.
4.Glasses, sun glasses - cultural background, fake, need to conceal. open your mind, you will see clearly.
5.Hair clip – human, soul, pretty, coquetry, sexuality, tension, something terribly feminine, in a mean way, it ties the hair up in a tensioned way, exposing a very bare neck, in a very bold way

The hazard - Under pressure - Take a moment and relax….how are you going to survive?.... have a bottle, have two…sink into delusion. SWALLOW. SWELL….. your life rolls before your eyes…..what are you going to do…when your breath goes away. Where to? light a match. No smoking, no drinking. Yet the tension…


Room - Andra Antone


Hello. My name is Andra - Elena Antone, second year student, born and raised in Romania. I was too late to apply for London, therefore I ended up in the WSA quite accidentally, which probably is one of the best, most interesting, most consuming, decision since I left homeland. I live in a student house. When we moved in, my house mates decided for me to inhabit the second largest room in the house, as I do architecture….however, because I do architecture I am never home. Therefore did not develop any feelings of comfort towards that space. My room is north facing, with poor lighting. I avoid it as much as I can. It affects my mood too seriously. It is a nice place to be at evenings, when the colors are bright, stimulating, probably fake……definitely confusing because of a sustainable bulb = energy saving dim light. It awakes a delirious mood= relaxed and energetic, which keeps me awake for too long. That is when I start painting. I like silence, stillness, therefore everything tends to be flat, low, lazy, heavy, with a dropped bed onto the floor.

Box - Andra Antone







We all made the boxes on Monday. They look quite similar. This is my box....I already dropped it, so it needs fixing.
