Some new work I'm working on.



This is my first attempts at a piece of work investigating 'the third part' (its a work in progress). I have come to be interested in this since i had a talk and was asked to consider
how the third space in a work is used and what it does. for instants if you have something behind you and something in front then you are the middle making three pieces. What therefore is your role?
The pieces above are moving image and are from a film called 'the notebook'. I was interested in the kissing scenes ... one reason being people always say i only use horror type films ... and two 'the kiss scene' is often inevitable and is often used in cinema and television. It plays a big part in the narrative of a film, so is therefore important. Due to it being used so much we can tell it is going to happen and this work proves we can still tell it is happening even though we cant see the lips impact. I don't want to go too deeply into kissing but it does beg the question is a kiss just to lips meeting or is it in fact everything that goes with that? is there more to what a kiss is?
For this work you can therefore see i have created a third part that isn't even there. You are in fact creating that middle part ('third part') by pondering on why it isn't there or by imagining what should be there.
