Show Opening

"Synthesis" opened Friday night. So IP is officially over (other than taking the work down after the show).

Installation

Well, last week I din't really make anything for IP, but I did make all of the final decisions concerning my installation. I figured out colors for the wall and what shapes I wanted to paint behind my pieces, and I finished installing the work in the gallery this evening. I didn't have my DSLR with me at the install so for now I just have grainy ipod pictures. I will take better shots when the gallery lighting gets set up. The show opens Friday at 6, and I am very excited now that everything is ready!

Shelves

Last week I built the shelves and stands that will hold my pieces once they are in the gallery. I also printed and framed the three images from my last post. I painted the shelves this morning and am now working on organizing my presentation better. I have made paper cut outs to test different colors behind the stands and I am finalizing sketches of my installation. I am also working on my artist statement and the forms I need to bring the gallery. the work is due on Wednesday and with any luck I will be able to start installing it on Friday! I can't believe undergrad is so close to being over!

Also, my website is in working order, although I am still working on cutting out some images of my work as I have way more than 20. My URL is www.kaitimarek.com
