Our group has decided to turn the cafe of The Collection into an Exhibition.
We first tired out to make small plaques like in an art gallery.
Though once in place we noticed that they were far too small, and though we were planning for subtle, it was far too subtle, so we have now decided for big letters, made out of plastic.
We then noticed the cafe was a far too small place for now a much bigger performance, so we have now moved the “exhibition” outside the cafe, though we are still mirroring the cafe, and having our text come from the conversations we heard in the cafe.
Learning but doing is a valuable form.
Our performance now reminds me of this video
(Homotopiafestival, 2007)
Like him with his salon, we are now mirroring the cafe culture but in a more exaggerated way. This similarities do not stop there, like him we are performing with text from actual customers.
As we start anew we are unsure where our near ideas will lead us, though I believe being more bigger with our acting and plagues will hopefully become an effective piece for people to understand that we are mirroring the cafe.
