Rorschach on site

With my Rorschach sculpture i decided to take it home and pin it to a wall in my bedroom. The point of this was to add rawness and vulnerability to the piece. It is displays in a private space where emotions tend to express themselves the most. It’s situated alongside our most vulnerable memories and moments. With the torch light creating the strong shadow in the dark room it looks creepy, like a scene from a horror movie. The Rorschach face is lurking in the darkness.

I also wanted to position the sculpture in a place with strong natural light and I was going to do that today but it was too overcast for any strong shadows. But, it was supposed to show a more natural, subconscious effect of our mental wellbeing, when things are not in our conscious control. I think it would have been to see how the shadow changes throughout the day.
