Emphasis

In keeping with the idea of exposing the subtext of language throughout this exhibition, we did a piece which was affectionately known to us as ’emphasis’.

The idea of this piece was that it allowed the audience to de construct a sentence, and see how the communication of language is just as important as the vocabulary. We created an initial piece on the blackboards within the LPAC,

and enjoyed the prototype so much that this phrase became the one used in the final piece. It works because it fits in with our borderline pretentious requirement for all the installations, and gave us a lot of scope in terms of presentation.

This worked out, as our final piece was presented in frames, to create even more subtext. This was easily one of the more simple pieces, : its aesthetic qualities were just as prominent as its meaning, which in my opinion kept the gallery’s atmosphere light.
