The Waiting Room

The waiting room is an installation based on the reproduction 'facsimile' of a space that already exists in society. The fabricated identity of the space is something we call can relate to. Here the room is almost generic with no specific purpose or intention for waiting for something.. like being at the dentist but more to the point what is beyond the closed door.


The room existing as an environment was an attempt to almost recreate the feelings of an 'automated response' of anxiety or to see if it was at least achievable. It also exists in the form of a video which examines the space much as the viewer would as a percipent witness to a process which may be understood differently by each individual.

Anybody who says art is easy, need to think again.
