A major thought had been running around my mind about the way to show my work ‘Insomnius’ so i decided the best way to evaluate the situation was to set out the sheep in every possible orientation, look/view, and then reflect upon… i would instinctively know which felt right..which conveyed the message/feeling behind the origination of the piece.
This, a message/feeling, a message related to emotion, physicality, and ‘time’, how best could it be translated to the viewer, who sees it and yet knows (maybe) little of the originator.
So, several hours later, after setting the sheep in a stand-by area and then placing them out like this… putting them back in holding area…. placing them out like that… putting them back in holding area… putting them out like so…putting them back in holding area…placing them out just like that… I knew which way worked and held the feeling/passed the message of what the piece was speaking about… Instinctually it felt ‘right’
Orientation of sheep decided…. and i am happy
Now i can move onwards to the next and dual choice, what would ‘the black sheep’ do, so i will set them out next, and let instinct/related thought guide me .
To be continued….
