Space & Occupied.

" In order to change one thing, I need to change its surrounding. In reverse, in order to change the surrounding, that one thing need to be changed."

By changing means that the surroundings always effects how people behave or act, so if the surrounding has change, it might cause change people behavior as well.

According to Capriccio Analysis, how we analyze the painting is when we keep looking at it and consider details by details. Then we start to mezmorize and emerge within the painting. That moment creates a mental state where we occupied space from what we perceived.

However, space could not be created without occupancy. When human/objects occupy space, they create an imaginary boundary. In which if it's happen to be an activities by human, the others tend to learn and imitate that habit. From that it means space that allow to change also changes the habit of people occupying space as well.

When watching Eyes Wild Shut for many times, I start to see more and more details that has set for some reasons. Because film is moving not like painting, so after watching it so many times feel like walk through space many time too. But then I always found new elements that compose the scene differently. That what's make me amazed by the film. This lead me to understand "the more you see, the more you impress by it". Then if a space occupy by people or objects, could create possibilities of different activities, it could also create curiosity for people to occupy space more often.

In order to create interaction of space and people then,

How to let people occupy the space?

How will they use the space?

And what is the outcome/possibility?

    From that the tool i use is add/subtract elements or objects to the space.

 I found this idea of occupying space similar to the artwork by one artist, Rirkrit Tiravanija

A Tiravanija installation, with the artist at the far right of the pic.

His work concern about people is having an experiences along with making of artwork. The audience become parts of the artwork creator together with the Artist. He sees value in ordinary objects where the real value is not in the object but how each one of them combine and make the activity for people to gather and enjoy talking to people. He crack through the idea that, the most important thing of this installation is when we see people interacting with one other, and it's always be difference every time he perform or even different year have different reaction from people. His artwork held in New York, he decide to use Thai food "Pad-Thai" so it attracts foreigner to taste the new taste Creates new value to an old activities.

From my point of view, He create a situation where people occupy space differently from ordinary gallery because when he add a cooking station, it is totally unexpected from what people would think of seeing in there. People gets to meet new people every time and eat new kind of food every time he performs, that make it always fascinates to attend. Most important aspect is the relationship between people, objects and space that create a whole new experience all together, that always keep changing through time. This is a new art approach called "Relational Art" (สุนทรียศาตร์เกี่ยวเนื่อง)

His other artworks also has a notion of occupying space and interaction with people and objects, which also has a similar aspect in relations between those things, and people always be parts of the art itself.
