The "unnoticeable"
At the beginning of this course I started to do exercises that familiarized me with my HOME, I started noticing things that I never notice before such as the amount of coins that go in and out of the bag, the different noises that is made when you make a cup of tea, the natural lights and reflections that are not noticed in the home. After doing all these experiments I was interested in the unnoticed natural light that changes shape as the time passes ignoring all the objects crating beautiful shapes. My concept is to create a series of parasitic mirrored objects that attach to the home exaggerating the amount of sunlight that enters a home making it a noticeable beautiful feature in your home. Below I will take you through my concept.

I was interested in unnoticeable things that happen in a home in terms of sound, light and shadow. At first I started taking photos of light and shadows during different times, I was fascinated on how beautiful the light takes shape of the existing conditions. When I started documenting light during different times I started paying attention to it all the time.
In the lights exercise I filmed a natural incident that takes place in my house. I filmed my window with the blinds down and the wind blowing into the room creating very interesting light forms. As I am half asleep in bed I can see when the room gets brighter and hear the blinds banging on the wall so I start dreaming about it in a slower and faster motion. In the video I slowed down some parts and sped up some parts to create the dream like motion.

1. creating interesting patterns
2. holding the mirror in place & gluing
3. joining the mirrors together

this video demonstrates the movement of the reflected light of the mirrored objects. the reflection moves across the room creating beautiful patterns.
