Even though we have come up with an exhibition name, we have no exhibition theme, in a recent meeting I attended Emily mentioned something about Prickly space etc, and in a later meeting I missed it had been confirmed that this would be the theme we would be going with.
The idea behind these spaces comes from an Angeleno geographer named Steven Flusty. Flusty proposes characterristics in spaces that make them uncomfortable for the public and there are five different types being:
-stealthy spaces “cannot be found”
- slippery spaces “cannot be reached”
- crusty spaces “cannot be accessed”
- prickly spaces “cannot be occupied comfortably”
- jittery spaces “cannot be utilized unobserved”
I’m not sure what we’re going for with this, not even sure I completely get how this will work, but we won’t be able to use all of the space ideas as we don’t have a full five spaces and so will be choosing a couple
