SPACE

The word space is generally used when referring to an infinite expanse of something. It's the areas of nothingness between one object and the other. That taken into consideration, when the word SPACE was the main topic for our major project, the first thing that came to my mind was a portrayal of confined spaces.


Another idea I had was that of 'White Space'. I collect a few images below which I found online to better depict this idea of mine.



The site would be minimalistic in terms of images, however is will allow the viewer to discover the "Space" within the site as they delve in further, similar to a portal from one place to another.

websites of interest


This week required us to locate a website that we classified as art site or design site. While we only shared one of our findings to the rest of the class, I actually found a fair few interesting Art and Design sites our there the world wide web.

The site I discussed however was that of Winther's Wonder World which is a website dedicated to displaying the artworks of Pierre Winther. What I found extremely interesting about this site was that it allowed you to wonder into this world of Pierre's, and basically find out for yourself what what is. The images along with the gusting wind blowing in the background are quiet mystical - slightly erriee but not so much that it maintains to intrigue the viewer into delving into this world of his.

The site is quiet structured in the sense that it links to the certain things depending on what is clicked, however it allows the viewer to decide on the path chosen. It is extremely interactive and depends on the viewers willingness to venture further into the site, to actually discover the works of the featured artists.
