Presentation and final review in Barnsley. Last week flew by and our concrete creations were dried out and loaded in to the van on Thursday afternoon. Friday 27th of February was the date of our final review in Barnsley where we set up our flipping podium installation on the pavement of May Day Green and took in the varied reactions of the public over the course of the day. So far so good? February 25, 2009.
Due to the non-uniform shape of the blocks that we were to use to construct the sculpture any developement had to be done through a vernacular process rather than a drawn.
The review went well on site, with issues being raised about the heights of the seats for safety purposes, but generally with the structure recieving praise for the quality of joints considering the materials that we had used. We also recieved an offer from someone wanting to keep our project, and so it will now take pride of place in one lucky persons back garden. Finally we had to load what we had done into the lorry to be transported to barnsley.
Making the project on site. We tested out the chairs, and they easily hold our weights! The traingular shapes are also successful. We worked on the doorway, and distorted the shape by adding extra bars in a kind of swing door shape. This also reflects the original ear shape.
Le roi est mort, vive le roi. As P5 finished we needed to mark somehow this rite of passage. So, we welcomed P6 by making Banoffee Pie aaaand caramel sauce. This project required loads of hard-work but I think that everyone had fun in the process. We will definitely miss working in a big group, and as a sad fact, this is .
Tuesday 24th and Wednesday 25th February. With only a few days before our structure has to be constructed in Barnsley, we decided that by thursday we need it to be partially assembled.
