Exhibition - My initial ideas and inspirations

HUMAN SPACE THOUGHT

My ideas are all in the subject of the exploration of human's mind in relation to the space. I would like to design not only the exhibition but also the space or metaphorically speaking the platform for the performance.
I am very much inspired by the way Kubrick designed his film sets for the Space Odyssey 2001 and would like to work in a similar way with my project.
I am planning to crate my exhibition space as a CAD model and rendeer it in a Artlantis for the 3D realistic effect http://www.artlantis.com/

This year I am in a Film Platform. We are working within the subject of expanded cinema. I also like to use elements of this in my project. My aim would be to both use the idea for the exhibition and then to film it so it can be shown to the public in a cinema theatre. That way I get to design my space without having to worry about the expenses involved in the rent of the space, materials and also it gives larger room for the creativity.
I will film the space and the experience in a way that the viewer would see it and then show it to a large audience so they can achieve the same viewing experience without having to go to the space. It will be a very interactive kind of experience.

RED BLACK WHITE

Recently I have been quite unconsciously surrounding myself with those three colours. Just a few days ago I went to the Shadow Catchers Exhibition at the V&A museum. As I was holding one of their flyers with the exact same colurs on it. I started contemplating on the idea and realized the meaning and importance of the choices I made and what it really meant to me.

RED - life, strenght, blood, power, intensity (the power of thought)
BLACK- the unknown, dark side of human's mind, things we might fear
WHITE - the infinity, purity, space, air
ME AND MY MIND

My space in a way is reminisent of a bubble. A spiritual space that we create around our bodies without knowing about it. It will be pure, translucent, open...
There will be also contrasting elements of objects and suprise introduced as well. Just as in a real world we get obstacles every day on our way.
I will be playing with light, shadow, phonogram photography, film, moving image and sound.
