Installation art is art that has been installed and arranged in a space or place by an artist. The art can be site specific, indoor or out, or temporary or permanent. Installation art will become known to posterity through documentation. Installation art has difficulty being commodified. An artist can use any type of material or object or subject. EX. Wood, metal, glass, cardboard etc……. it is endless. Installation art is the art of the moment and it brings new definition and challenges to artwork. Viewers interact with artwork and expect the unexpected. Richard Wilson to me was very interesting. I liked how the artist incorporated the moving parts.
I felt a connection with Susan Hiller and her Video Installation. It was interesting and I felt like every time a new picture came up, it was a surprise. I was expecting the unexpected.
My theme is Self. I used my hair salon for the installation art piece. I used a chair, scissors, cape, mirrors, plant, blow dryer, curling iron, product, business cards, mat on the floor, hair, utility cart, and a vase. I chose this site because this is my life. My hair salon has been one of my passions. I am proud to be a business owner. How could I not express
a passion of mine. The location is 1780 Abbott Rd.
In my photograph I see the stage for performance. The salon is very busy and when I see the photographs it reminds me of how I want the customers to be sitting in the chair. The salon would not be what it is if it was not for the customers. I almost feel because the customers are not there something is missing.
I felt my space was a little busy. There are plenty of shapes. The station it self is balanced and emphasized in the photograph. I found it hard to find unity because of the busy space. The mirror creates movement and shows more of the salon. The station creates the 3-dimentional look of installation art.
