Donna Lauder

               Have you ever people watched?  I have its a natural habit, which evolved into an obsession. Not in the way you think though! Examining our social habits, routines, environments and reflecting on these relationships we hold.

Looking forward to my collaboration with fellow Northumbria University student Donna Lauder next week.

‘untitled’ (peek a boo box) 2016 

light exists, it allures your presence nearer, it poetically speaks to the soul. colour can dramatically change an atmosphere, so what happens if you contain it within a small space.

‘Rub me’ 2016 short video used in the installation.

‘Rub me’ 2016. video to follow. manipulating the attention span of the viewer through a short video, projected on to a sculpture. Using levels of distraction in communication and how we use are senses, disrupting the video, alluring the viewer in to walk around the free standing sculpture and become one with the video. the tension of touch is present as you are drawn to touch the tubing, but we can sense what the materials will feel like referring to past sensory knowledge.

installation for end of year hand in. 'See you See me’ 2016. 

an obsession with people watching...

our daily habits, routines, communication, body language and how we use these within a environment. how does space affect the relationships we hold?
