Representational Negative Space:
The goal of this project was to create a sculpture that represents the area around an object or event.
The question is whether it is possible to represent negative space truthfully while still making the event/object recognizable. I believe that, especially in the case of a moving event, negative space is not recognizable. It becomes a kind of abstraction, a dissolution of form.
This sculpture is the product of that idea. The instigating event was the spin of a ballet dancer.
