Here is my third and final exhibition idea. I have placed my sculpture in the centre of one miniature garden in a shared courtyard. As you can see in the photos above, all houses surrounding the courtyard look out onto the garden which means the residents inside will view my Final Major Piece, all whilst keeping to the new social distancing rules.
Out of the three locations that I have tried and tested to exhibit my FMP, this is my favourite. My sculpture stands well within this setting; the size of the surroundings compliment the size of my sculpture and the bright colours create an interesting contrast to the deep charcoal tones.
Henry Moore once said that the sky is the perfect background for a sculpture, and i can see why. When trying to capture all angles I took a shot from the floor, which in turn allowed a glimpse of my sculpture to be set against the sky. This reminded me of the vast pieces of artwork displayed in the grounds of my local modern gallery, Hauser and Wirth. I believe that my FMP would suit a display in a similar location as it is rustic with a modern twist and open to wide interpretation by people from all walks of life.
