When we began this investigation, I was not sure how having multiple
artists creating one piece of art would turn out, especially with two minutes
to add as much as you can. Each artist has his or her own idea on how they want
a piece to turn out. I thought "What if someone ruins my artwork or what
if I ruin someone else's!" I realized, in the process of creating the
artwork, that it does not matter. It is actually quite more exciting seeing
what people added on to my design. Having to decide so spontaneously on what to
create, after a few pieces, took away the nervous feeling of wondering what to
create because you just start and then roll with whatever you decided to do.
Looking at the artwork after it is complete, I see the compositional unity
between the 500-sum works. Recording, presenting and archiving have a role in What is art and who decides because people
can work together and create something great. I think this investigation will
make me not be as meticulous about my artwork in the future.
Good work, I'm glad you came to some good conclusions about your approach to making artwork. Art can come from a selection process and working from other art work and other processes. A central idea is not as confining as you might think as long as you don't give it that power.
