Deconstructing ways by Isidro Blasco
Using giant photographs supported by an 800-kilogram wooden frame, Blasco built an uncannily realistic 3D mirror image of a streetscape installed in Sydney in order to create a giant optical illusion of the alley going in another direction.
His goal was to trick somebody and actually believe it.
Cornelia Parker
The installation is lit with a single light-bulb at the very centre of the arrangement, casting shadows on the walls. The title gives us a whole new way of understanding the artwork, making us think of other dramatic moments of destruction and creation in the
much wider universe.
She is interested in how everyday objects can be changed by (often violent) processes.
She is in fact fascinated by how change can create something completely new.
This is exactly what i'm interested in, how you can create something new by changing it by taking fragments of it, by taking the parts that intrest you the most and join them all together in order to create an optical illusion in a way.
Blasco's installation is something I would really like to try and make at some point of my project. It reminds my the first collage I made with the perspectives and it would be really interesting if i could convert it in a similar model.
