Initially I had intended this sculpture to sit with the square base on the bottom, exploring ways to photograph it.

Analysing how it would look better. We decided it reads better this way.

I wanted to use shadow to extend the play and motion of the acetate.

Above you can clearly see the original sculpture and the shadow.

Next you can see how the sculpture and the shadow fuses into one.

The image of the sculpture becomes secondary as the projected shadow surpasses the sculpture .

Shadow sculpture

Here Cornelia Parker creates a secondary sculpture with the shadows and then they become one.

Cornelia Parker,

Cold Dark Matter: An Exploded View,

1991

Artist Research - Cornelia Parker’s 'Cold Matter'

• Cold Dark Matter is the restored contents of a garden shed exploded by the British Army at the request of the artist Cornelia Parker.

• The surviving pieces have been used by Parker to create an installation suspended from the ceiling as if held mid-explosion. Lit by a single lightbulb the fragments cast dramatic shadows on the gallery’s walls.

• The piece reminds me of how i was told time and time again with my project disruption ≠ destruction and while i think this is true i do think there’s components of destruction that coincide with disruption & pyrite, ie. in this piece the disruption of light, shadows, material and structure

• With feedback from Micheal about creating a structure of my own I practiced creating a sculpture and visualised it blown apart and the disruption it would cause to a structure, I made this using paper straws and disrupted it by tearing it apart, i documented the timeline of this piece above.
