With the hoarding, I’m also simultaneously working on another project. I had spoken about it during the last critique. I’m still working out the kinks but I know what direction I’m going with it.
What I am interested in doing with my final project is to take it into a more social/community direction. I want to create a product of social interaction that is relatable, simple, formless, but concretely exists. Essentially, what I am doing is socially knitting a long seamless, black, thin scarf. It is going to be at least 20 feet long, and I hope to make it somewhere between 35-40 feet in length. While I create this piece, I will be recording the conversations and interactions I have with people in process of this “line” I’m knitting. These conversations will play on a continuous loop while on display, becoming a literal narrative and social “thread” for this piece.
I’ll include quick sketches later tonight.
