Debate the Frame by Tøm

January 11th, 2008 2:41 PM

INSTRUCTIONS: Everyone knows that art vs. Art is all about the frame - or the framing, if you prefer. It's high time you framed one or more of your works for The U of A. And no, you can't just go buy a frame (not even from Cheap Pete's). Build one, or at least modify/misuse one. If this is all a little literal, you may feel free to "frame" one of your works in some other way - a la the statue framed by the gallery, the building framed by the photographer. This framing should be a demonstrable process - by which we mean, saying your stencil is framed by the sidewalk (without a clever explanation, or a really fantastic sidewalk) is rather less than what we're looking for.

I'd been looking for a task where I can employ the tape sculpture technique currently being awesomesauced by Lincoln, and here's the one!

I wanted something cool to tape, so that ruled out me, and I not being cool enough to own a real guitar, decided to tape-ify my Guitar hero 2 controller.

OK, for the first to try out my new artform, you get my vote, but I want to see more purpose to the frame specifically.

I'm glad someone has started adopting Lincoln's tape and wrap technique. I think it could really catch on as a great way to make lightweight copies of things.
