The [displayframe] group are on a roll this week. After ordering a substantial amount of mdf boards, the making of the prototypes is underway. The goal is to make at least 17 ‘bad boys’ for the launch of the Youth Forum on Friday 3pm.

The final installation piece in the Millennium Galleries today would have been the ‘armchair’. Placed in front of the plasma screens, it would have triggered an intended sense of uneasiness and curiousity of what was going on in the space for passersby, as a kind of teaser of things to come in the social space.

Assuming that we were permitted to continue developing our intervention, today the display would begin its 3-dimensional aspect with the addition of a worktable standing on both sides of the ‘glass’ and half-empty paint cans to emphasise the idea of creating space to encourage artistic pursuits rather than just finished exhibition pieces.

We have placed chosen images and accompanying descriptions from the Graves Gallery’s collection to begin to suggest the connection between the work which the Youth Forum Studio have recently produced as self-interpretations of the Graves own existing art pieces.

Looking at the designs for the ‘designframe’ its become apparent that sturdy and robust fixings are going to be an essential requirement for the safety and security of the blocks. However moving on from that we started looking at how these fixings could go on to incorporate various accessories to enable then to be used [...]
