Despite being an external space it maintained a internal quality. This was furthered by the juxtoposition of the man-made vs natural and seeming blurring of boudries between these such as the natural hedges cut into rectangular- artificial shapes or the man-made drains so covered in moss that they looked organic.
Our work reflected this in its ambiguity. Each layer of the work highlited a different aspect of the built vs natural dualities. The work is very solid- and had a brick like quality and a tangibility, this alludes to the prominent brick structures at Goldstein site and the built aspect to it. However, the work also has a lightness to it due to its delicate etchings and transparent nature, emphasising the whimsical qualities of Goldstein site. Like the boundries blurred in the site the work too changes depending on the context in which you view it, when held to the light, viewed in the dark or observing the shaddows a very different feel is exuded.
