Gallery Questions

Can you see a relationship between the content of the text and the shape?
 I can definitely see a relationship between the text and the shapes. It may not be straight forward, but if you are able to read and completely understand the text, then you notice that it is connected to the shape either directly, indirectly or metaphorically. For example, the text about the small ship in a large body of water was about isolation (it metaphorically relates to a person being alone, away from others).

Record the name of a band from Craig Leonard’s DNA project.
Alot of names stood out to me: size, you and you, nearing, a new low, horse, grape fruit.

How is the framing of these pieces in a gallery inviting you to see them differently?
First of all, they are all arranged together in sort of categories – all about sales on one side, about religion on one side, about sluts or mockery on the other. When something is arranged in an order, it tends to appeal to you with a certain force. Secondly, they are all posted neatly on a white wall open not just to view, but to even touch. That gives the viewer a sort of connection to the art that’s posted, it’s all together just organized to capture through eyes.

Record an idea or art movement or artist or writer or writing idea you would like to investigate.
I would like to investigate Craig Leonard`s DNA Project. I didn’t quite understand what it was all about, or the purpose behind it. I would really like to know more about it.
