Longue
duree a
collaborative installation.1996.
H block Gallery Queensland University of Technology.
Anna Burch,Carole Driver, Ross Barber.
This
installation has resulted from a collaborative approach to the architectural
and social dimensions of this space. Relationships and intersections
have emerged through the process of working together in the space
over two weeks.
The space has been opened up by the installations elements and draws
attention to both internal and external dimensions.The fugitive
aspects created, reflect an interest in incorporating temporal dimensions
in the installation.
The passage of light through the day is a key element of the work,
creating a play of light and shadow.The artificial light at night
further transforms the space and the relationships of colour, light
reflections and shadow. Text by Anna Burch edited by Ross Barber.
Please note.
The installation was originally titled Londurea, a misspelling by
me of the term longue dure'e coined by Annales historian Fernand
Braudel. |
