#150: Take What You Need (After Tom Phillips' A Humument)

Edit a book until you have the story you want or need; or until it is yours.

#149: Negative Space, or The art in the space between works of art

Look at the shadow, or shadows, created by a sculpture.  

If it is outside, watch how it moves and changes as the sun moves.  You could return at different times of the year and day.  

How is it different from the work of art, and how is it the same?  Which version of the shadow (if there is more than one) is your favourite?  

How does it work with framed art?  What patterns or shapes are created by the gallery light? 

What else can you find in the space between artworks?

#148: The Greatest Landscape

Reality.

#147: Relief

The sound of a really long piss.

#146: Windows (Self-portrait XIII)

A medium of your choice.

An artwork based on the colours and patterns in your eyes.

#145: A heart torn out vs A heart given to the world

A site-specific artwork removed from that site and sold off to the highest bidder.

vs

Allowing the world to see an unknown treasure.

#144: A metaphor for our times

A pigeon lying dead in the middle of a high street.  Its head nowhere to be seen, blood spurts stain the ground where the head should be.  

There are no signs of a struggle, or any evidence to suggest how the pigeon came to be there in that state.  

Many of the shops on the high street have been shuttered or display closing down signs, no major chains can be seen. 

The skies are grey, as are the few people that trudge through the scene.

An outsider looks down, puzzled, and has an idea.
