Trip to the Art Gallery

Mine and Hannah's Art Work



IMOOS V- Bryan Wynter


The top picture is a photo of the work Hannah and I made at the gallery, there were many shapes with magnets in them so they were able to stick to the board. We had a play around and liked the shape we made out of many different shapes. I find shapes interesting to work with as I believe I like the freedom of shapes and how there are new shapes to discover through dance as well as on paper.
We were also interested by the second picture and how this had moving shapes with the reverse mirror behind, so we decided to look into the artist and what their work is about. When researching Bryan Wynter I found out that some of his most remarkable works are constructions which he titled IMOOS (Images Moving Out Onto Space). Using a parabolic mirror, he would hang contrasting pairs of painted shapes, which rotated freely. Their reversed reflections enlarged, appearing to move in opposite directions. I like the title and the idea of images moving out onto space and I will be something I will look further into to see if this could be an idea to use for our duet.

  1. I love the top picture, it would make a great starting place for a piece of choreography. There are many shapes that contrast with each other: the curves vs angles, the blocks of dark colour vs the blue.
