Distorting Space and Time
The "United Visual Artists" group create many different stunning pieces using mainly large scale objects and walls . one of their pieces created in Mar 10, 2014 called "monument" used the idea of a pendulum swinging to represent time and the darkness to represent the space.
i chose this peace because just from watching the video i got lost in time and space, loved the feel that it gave. it makes you forget about every thing, forget about your life,your body . a reason to this all. makes you feel light and as if afloat.
lost.
The first thing that came to my head when watching this was flouting in space, possibly the idea of death too and how quit and empty it seems althos they did have some sound from speakers on the pendulum.
i relay like the idea of a relay big dark room with the only source being from the swinging pendulums.
this give a sense of empty ness in the room. i also like how the only sound is from the speakers in the pendulum which again gives you a lost sort of feeling.
i feel the main thing this brings memory of is when i would go camping and look at the starsand just think of how small we are, feel how quiet it is when away from the city. but mainly its not the past experiences but the one you get when walking through thid piece of art.
its about leting you get lost .
i think this has a very definite relevance to my project, actual its in its name"Distorting Space and Time" which is exactly what were doing

The UVA is a London-based art comunity founded in 2003 by a british artist called Matt cLARK(1974) thire work is based of of wall-based artwork,large-scale site-specific installation and performative projects.
in short, they just make art pieces just not with paint and a canvas.
the team was inspired to do this by the Foucault pendulum and how such a simple mechanism can tell so much about the rotation of the earth.
the piece can be pretty well related to the now days as many more people start to live in city, they start to be surrounded by a lot of sounds and consent distractions. as a human you do need some break from it and have some privet time. many people dont get this now days and its very importent to get some of this time and this piece dos exactly that and this piece could over exactly that.
its got a very symbolic meaning as it a piece that sends people in to another dimension , makes them lost which people need to at least have happen once.
