Buren Images
The Buren images are intriguing. The second image is a painted wall, with sliders containing different coloured squares. The viewer can create their own view of the work by moving he sliding parts accordingly. This allows the viewer to change their original perceptions and ideas about the art work. I love this work, I think it would be quite useful for Jaz's particpatory art research too.

"I never have a system, its always a different process. The people I
work with give me different reations to what I ask for which allows me
to adapt myself to their way to react, sometimes it gives me an idea
which is going to be part of the piece."

Art is...
I’m not too sure where I got this from, and I am sorry I have no reference, but it is everything I believe that art is.

Fairy Stories...
Thanks to Rachel, here is a fairy tale house...
...and some very scary trees.
But who's house is this?

I love really looking, and seeing how beautiful something is. Something that normally goes unnoticed.
I'm glad I could inspire...
"Hello Amy, I love your blog.
I was trying to post a comment directly to it, but the function would not work. I was reading your post on Anna Gaskell, and saw that you referenced the Jackson Twins.
I went to the wolverhampton show as well last year...it was wicked.
I'm not sure if you know, but they have a show that just opened in Birmingham with Vee Spears (love her work too.) The Jacksons have several of the large pieces (I think they are same size and finish as Wolverhampton--so HUGE!!) I think I remember counting 8...but there are totally incredible pieces. If you are in the area in the next 2 months it is worth seeing...it is awe-inspiring, actually!
I found out about it from this link on a birmingham arts page: http://www.visitbirmingham.com/arts_and_culture/art_galleries/rhubarb__east_gallery/
Keep up the great blog and sharing your view on the world...
Phoebs"
