Metaphor

I worked on sixth mirror displacement by Robert Smithson. I find intriguing the spacial conditions he creates by placing the reflection of the sky on the sand (ground), and the questions such conditions now pose: (Since the mirrors make the sky attainable), can I now walk on the sky? Can I lay on the Sky? What kind of light quality has such as space?

The movie I "Rope" by Alfred Hitchcock. Eventhough rope was shot on a limited space, the way it was shot does not make the audience aware of the confinement. What I found interesting of the film, was the displacemtne of the program of each space. The film set composed of all the traditional public spaces of a flat; dining room, living room, foyer, kitche, etc. yet none of the spaces are utilized by their program. With a few manouvers of objects, each space takes a new meaning.

I don't have a metaphor yet. Some of the words that come to mind are: morph, emergence and displacement. I feel these words can be found on my installation and film.

For my site I want to explore a place with a distict program. I am thinking a pedestrian overpass.
