‘Still Life’ is an installation piece that encompasses an exploration into the relationship between the viewer and the artwork.
The final piece is made up of 3 parts:
1. The Artwork
An workwork was made and installed in the same space as its own exhibited work. It explored themes of chance and control as well as clichés, time and perspective. It was then photographed for documentation.

2. The Responses
The artwork was broken down by images and concept and configured into a document that instructed the reader to respond to it in writing. This was sent to people of different ages and interests/occupations.
3. The Plaques
A few responses were carefully picked. Fonts, colours and sizes were selected according to the voice of the writing and then used to make plaques - these being curated as the final visual piece.
Viewers are invited to interact with the space (especially sitting on the bench) and imagine the work written about. They are invited to question the purpose of 'the plaque' in both the inside and outside spaces and what art is with or without its context - how much is too much or too little context to an artwork?
