Space Confirmation

Our space for the installation art will be the dark black walled room next to the stairs of the fashion department.

We choose the dark room because our installation art is by using laser light's reflection on the mirrors which constructs different lines from different angles, and creates its own different abstract grid systems from different angles of perspectives, the project is going to be inside the big white closed shelf, the art work needs dark condition to benefit the laser light in the darkness to be shown better.

Our team is a 2 people team, Sementha and I, and we need 4-5 days to collect the elements for this project and practically work on the project until the finished installation art work.

During developing our installation artwork, we've picked a few more options for our installation art work's location.

The first space we actually used was next to the stairs in the hall.

We developed our installation artwork more on the grid system and tried to find a better location, where's got natural lighting, so we picked the window area next to the Product design studio.

Though, I thought about natural lighting isn't bright enough to project the artwork and create the shadow sometimes. Then I thought about a very challenging space.

The idea is to hang the artwork in the middle of this hall, it's got 4 levels within ground floor, so I wanna hang a thick wire all the way cross, and the artwork will be in the middle of the wire, and it's possible to project lighting on the artwork from a window and reflect the shadow on the wall. 

Project Brief

Grid System

A grid subdivides a page vertically horizontally into margins columns, inter-column spaces, lines of type, and spaces between blocks of type and images.

We need grid system because these subdivisions from the basis of a modular and systematic approach to the lay-out, particularly for multipage documents, making the design process quicker, and ensuring visual consistency between related pages.

Page lay-out is the part of graphic design that deals in the arrangement and style treatment of elements (content) on the page.

There’s print base, web base and time base. Print base is based on the printed objects such as T-shirts, handout, books, magazines and etc. Web base is based online, such as web layout. Time base is based on time such as video editing or movies.

The benefits of using a grid are multifarious, ranging from the psychological to the functional and of course the aesthetic.

I want to create my own grid system, I got inspired on films and time, such as clock’s splashed patterns, camera films capture the time, the camera captures a certain moments, thus the films time line is sequent from the beginning to the end, so films involve time and moments.

This project is talking to anyone all around, it’s a new experiment to create a new system with being creative and experimental spirit.

This project will make audience see something new and fresh.

We don’t have competitors because we are creating on our own instead of competing someone else,  it’s about new ideas and new creation.
