DOCUMENTATION
For my exhibition I decided to base the theme around hiding spaces. I thought it might be fun and interesting to to set up photos of the hiding places in their concealed state, next to the same hiding space, but with the hiding place obvious, and in plain sight, to try and put across how good or bad a hiding place is. My house has many hiding spaces, so I walked around and chose four that have been significant, and I have used in the past.The hiding spaces I chose were under my bed, under the disused fire place in my room, my mums walk in wardrobe and a hidden compartment in a bookshelf. These spots are spread out throughout my entire house meaning that my exhibition wasn't all presented on the same wall, all next too each other, instead you would have too move around and look for the photos and hiding spaces which I thought would make the exhibition more interactive and fun.

I thought that putting the photo of the concealed hiding space next too the hiding space gave a really good comparison and contrast, and made it obvious how effective the hiding place might be when in its concealed state which is the main point that I wanted too put across with this exhibition. After I had set up my exhibition I told my sister that I had set up an exhibition around all the hiding spaces of the house, and I found it really interesting following her around and seeing all of the hiding spaces she knew about and I didn't, and seeing her instantly head too the hiding places of the exhibition that I thought she did not know about. This idea in my opinion turned out being really interesting, and I actually ended up teaching my sister about a few hiding spots, and learning about more hide hiding spaces that I didn't know of.
After the exhibition I asked my sister what she thought of it, if she liked it? Disliked it? or even found it interesting. She said that she "really enjoyed the theme and concept behind it". She said that she found it interesting showing me hiding spaces that I did not know about, and discovering about the hiding places in my exhibition that she did not know about before.
All in all I think the exhibition was a success, my sister said that she understood and enjoyed the concept that I was going for without having too explaining it too her. I actually also enjoyed this task, having too come up with my own exhibition and actually create it. |
