Taking up Space
The three sculptures show some of the children and young adults who attended a workshop in March. It’s a simple idea that draws on identity and promotes a sense of belonging in our public spaces. The sculptures are near life sized 3D composites made using photography and digital editing. Some facets of the sculptures look real and lifelike while others are progressively pixelated to give the impression that the individual people are appearing and disappearing in the way they occupy space. The sculpture questions the right we have to take up space in public spaces and raises questions about identity, and what makes us real and human, in a technology and data driven world.
