1st Performance - The STRIKEBACK of the Spaghetti
Back to 30-8-2004 which is the first design studio class in Sweden. Our tutor for this assignment, stage designer Dan Nemeteanu required us to design an object with the theme of "aggressive elememnt attacking a collective structure".
The first thing came to my mind about this project - I want to save money, I don't want to spend any unnecessary expense for busying materials.
The second thing came to my mind - But i don't have any materials at home...except my personal belongings, What i got is a pack of spaghetti I bought in Willy's (a supermarket in Sweden). And probably I can steal some forks, knives and other kitchwares from the corridor..hahaha
So..here is the recipe of my artwork:
- 1 strand of spaghetti (the aggressive element)
- 2 forks (the collective structure. no machinery - must be hand bent in order to get the right shape)
- 1 plastic plate (must be micro wave and oven NOT SUITABLE. so it can be melted and get the deformed result)
- then just glue them together!
The idea behind this piece of work is by portraying the scene when a strand of spagehetti is attacking a group of forks, the reality is twisted, and the ideology of the weak can overcome the strong is portrayed. The sense of force, momentum expressed through this sculpture.
It is the first work I did in Sweden and it had became my personal masterpiece..haha It is not the end of this project and I will try to testify more about this idea in the future.
