Setting it all up in the garden





I have decided to keep the black and white spectacle, even though it is not as strong as the other two as I didnt have time to fully realise it. The black and white balances out all the bright colours surrounding it and makes it stand out in its own way against the other spectacles. I think that spectacle has to stand central as it is the tallest, although as it is not the strongest I don't want the focus to be solely on that one. There is so much going on though I doubt this will be an issue when it is all installed in the space. I wondered whether the green roof could resemble grass and whether this would add anything to the piece. By having something on the floor it makes the spectacles look too static - I want them to look like they just wandered into a forest, not like they are stopped and having a picnic.

Playing around with potentially using the green roof as an element. I think this looks like it is a religious figure.. so maybe not
I wanted to double check that the original spectacle definitely wasnt usable. This looks too much like a head, a top and a skirt and resembles a woman. I want the spectacles to be ambiguous and suggest the body subtly. 








 I thought about whether to take the black and white spectacle out completely and just have the two. There is something nice about having three though as it looks more like a gathering of spectacles that are having a conversation rather than one just leading another through the trees.
