FInal Intentions

It is clear from my previous blog entries that I have a clear understanding of the medium I am working with. It is now up to me to be explicit to what my final piece shall be visualised as. So within the structure of limiting myself to five bullet points I am going to summarise the outcome:

1) I will produce two net curtains (the rough dimensions of each net being 36"x54"). With the intention that they may be longer or shortened if needed.

2) The two net curtains will be looking at topic social class and taste, and the exploration of the classes particular taste in material goods through stereotypes that are manifested by the common cliches found visible to the eye (dress attire, jewellery, valuables, acronyms etc). The purpose to question the value we assign to such goods as a reflection of oneself in an increasingly visual literate culture.

3) Net 1 (Bad taste) Will be a visual homage to the lower class example the Chav culture found in british society (looking at representation in popular media like the show Shameless).

4) Net 2 (Good taste) will be a visual homage to the upper class example the Sloanie found in their own cultured habitat of status and horse riding.

5) A possible short piece of either footage or set of photos to capture the curtains.
