I tease it out in my head step by step ahead of time. the vision came to sketches came to keyed charts and pre-dusted optics in stacked boxes for transport. I visualize it – I wheel in the tools and walk in the space, what is the first action I take for the body of the work? what do I need to effect that? and I learn the installation that way, how it fastens, the kind of wire of it. I make lists as I think. then when I’m packing I do the same visualization, and check it against the first list. because I never think of blue tape or the cordless screwdriver, I had write myself a sign on the toolbox lid.<\/p>\n
certain prefabrications should still be made. I let myself know only half of this two-room, symmetrical installation. I will learn the second one by doing the first one. \u00a0I reserve an equal number of optics, and their selection will be the parameters for the vision of it I’ll have later, in real time, when I enter the second exhibition room with the toolbox. I’ll set the anchor points of its symmetry and let it make itself in midair. any more planning than that would make the work look stiff and old-timey.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
