Smells, Sights, Sounds.

Having had another chat with Megan, we were discussing how my hallway installation could be added to in terms of creating a more cohesive piece; something that reflects its realism rather than an art student's crappy attempt at building a makeshift hallway.
The talk included minute details that I have really even considered, things like an air freshener, the use of household objects/items such as a bowl of pauperie, or glass coasters. It's all in the small details I guess.

Another important element I was already looking at was the use of a lamp/light in my installation. It was brought up however that the overhead daylight bulbs in the studios would be on for the entirety of the exhibitions. Megan suggested the use of a board to cover above where my installation would be, however I didn't feel safe with that idea- I don't want the responsibility on my head if the board were to fall on anyone. Hence my next suggestion, using material like netting to cover the 'ceiling' on my installation, to darken the space and therefore the light from the hallway lamp would have a heavier impact and also create an ambience.
