Today talked about our work again, few things came up, the use of the plastic wallets as important- they're something we use to protect things. Suddenly, you give the unopened envelopes in side new value.
The "rug" came under scrutiny as it perhaps isn't rug like enough a
nd, when discussed further, it became clear that the thing that was important
was creating worth and value out of nothing, and the materiality of what you can do with paper. Walking on something doesn't fit this.- another plus of the plastic wallets is that people are happier to tread on them, it's somehow protected.
Also perhaps the 2 pieces together, (plastic wallets + rug) don't work. Enjoying the plastic wallets, could I continue this further, and perhaps add the junk mail directly in....
or have them continuing upwards again....Origami, is interesting, but perhaps in different forms, and needs to be more convincing. Make some other shapes, what else can I do with paper?
Idea of using the plinth, as in Cork Street galleries, and other commercial places discussed.
