Sculpture Semester 2 2014: The final display

I ended up using the Project gallery with advice from Sebastian which suited the work much better. I experimented with placing the tea bags by themselves in the other room of the project gallery but it seemed strangely empty ? It was a complicated install but I felt happy with the end result. Thankful to Lynette for lending me the two smaller white tables to complement the larger one and create a feeling of the domestic and home. My fiancé had kindly made some plinths out of wood (see below) but I had been searching for white stools/tables. I went to the op shops in Paddington as well as the antique shops there but no joy. They gave me a lead to an amazing warehouse of furniture in West End, Vast Interior http://www.vastinterior.com.au but they didn't have quite was I looking for. But it all worked out in the end.

Wooden plinths made as backup

Experimenting with placing the tea bags on their own

This would potentially work better in a different space than the project gallery with its somewhat akward walls in the first room

View as you enter the room

First projection you see that guides you on a journey around
as I placed it to block off walking straight into the middle.
The idea of the placement was to create a journey like movement that wasn't strictly linear as I feel like grief is not linear as in the '5 stages of grief' by Kubhler Ross but instead its complex and connected and one can revisit the stages or skip certain ones even years later.
