For critique this week, I set up my mirrors in the courtyard. I painted on the reflections so that they matched what I saw in the site. The mirrors matched up to everything that I saw from one specific location at my height. In this sense, the work turned into a self portrait of what I see in my surroundings. I had one of the mirrors reflect a mirror in another location in the courtyard to make a viewer move throughout the space. For my final project, I think I am going to work with black paper on the mirror instead of black paint. The paper can be more exact and wont show my brushstrokes. I think I might cover the mirror with black paper and cut out the space that I want to be reflected so that if it lines up, all a person will see in the mirror is that one object. I thnk I'm going to install the mirrors in the bathroom because the bathroom doesn't have mirrors within it so my project will add something that one would expect to see. Also, my mirrors need to be seen with a lot of light in order to see the reflections, and I think the bathroom will be the lightest spot in the bar.
Happy Easter!
