if i was to include james turrells piece:

james turrells- a mezmerizing illusion of a piece, viewers experience a haunting transition period as their eyes become adjusted to the subdued light, this physical transition mirrors the viewers perceptive shift.

i like this for the poster too...

the turbine hall.


i think i would have liked to include some of james turrells pieces thinking about it, maybe i could of moved william pyes vortex's and placed a big open faced room on the balcony which shined the light onto the rest of the turbine hall. that would of been good....hmm....i might change it....

changess...

ive changed my mind on a few things really. i think i kept the artists much alike. ive decided not to use francesca woodman as i liked the fact that the pieces are mostly scuptural and there seems to be a better connection.and they are all quite large so it didnt feel right to put photographs in with it. even though i could have blown them up. i just decided not to. also with the eden project, i  loved the architecture alot its just that there a a few pieces within the show that need darkened space so it didnt seem right sticking them in a god sized greenhouse.

i think thats basically it though.
ive placed william pyes pieces on the balcony part as i think that it flows better excuse the pun. they just felt like they needed their own space. richard long has his own wall, and i felt that the station by bill viola was perfect for the middle of the floor as it is free standing and abit of a show stealer i think. another of his pieces the veiling is situated in the corner as the access to it is facing the viewers so its a flowing route. come to think of it its reminding me of a rapid, the movement happening and how viewers are going to move in and out and around the pieces.

as with all my work, i never feel like i have done enough 'playing' as i normally make my mind up and i dont feel the need to change things alot, im happy with the choices ive made and i think that me basing it on an exhibition id really like to go see then to me im finished..
i think this is more of a nicely understated image for the poster. i think its a bit over the top if i put flowing water on the front....
