My project will focus on evolution, birth, motherhood, as this is the way that lives survives and continue our journey in this world. My starting points are:
Blade Runner 2049 (Whether cloned human is able or allowed to have children)
Sense 8 (The other form of mother)
Alexander the Great (The influence a mother has on her child)
Mother! (How mother is used)
First Reformed (Anxiety of the polluted environment where our children are going to live)
Lucy (How a human brain evolves)
Cloud Atlas (The connection between the past, present and future)
The museums/galleries/exhibitions I’ve been to so far:
English as a second language
Random access memory (Global warming)
A fortnight of tears (Mother, insomnia)
Natural history museum (evolution, life sciences)
The museums/galleries/exhibitions I’m planning to go to:
Saatchi Gallery
Tate Modern- Dorothea Tanning, Fran West
Science Museum
Barbican Centre
And anything to do with the mother and child relationship, human reproduction etc. I intend to learn more about the importance and people’s attitude of birth, reproduce so that I can make my own prediction.
My plan for the outcome is an interaction film or augmented reality installation art.
- An AR installation that shows the connection between our ancestor and us and our children
- A film about a future child suddenly appears in our present world
- An animation showing/predicting how we evolve/will evolve in the future
I intend to use more approaches other than filming, like screen printing, model making, letter press etc. The work done in the workshops can be in the final video of be a part of the idea development.
My aim is to create the work that is suitable for exhibition. As a viewer, I always prefer the works that is interactive, that I can take a part in, hence that’s what I want to achieve. The target audience is everyone, because this idea is (should be) concerned by the whole human race.
