Project 31
1 & 3 Posters[Installation]

This project was inspired by Joseph Kosuth’s 1965 installation, One and Three Chairs(1). His work was based on Plato's Theory of Forms, which proposes that our experience of the physical world is not the reality. Rather, reality is constructed from abstract ideals (Forms). Kosuth's One and Three Chairs presents three renderings of a chair to interrogate which one of them is the most “real” or the most “ideal” chair. 

Playing on Kosuth's ideas, each composition I presented are different representations of a poster. One of these compositions adhere to modern conventional understandings of a poster, in the sense that it's designed on a computer and then printed on paper. For my second iteration, I vinyl cut the components from the design that I digitally created and then placed the vinyl directly on the wall. I then photographed the vinyl and this became my third poster.
