SuttonBeresCuller

SuttonBeresCuller is a collaboration of three of Cornish's alumni, and location for them is very important for their work. Together they make sculptures and installations. They showed us examples of what they have donee. They did an interactive work called "Trailer Park" where they towed a park and bench around by a car, completed with living vegetation. They drove this around, to more industrial areas without nature and parked it, so people could sit on the bench. Another project they worked on was "Island" where they created a floating island and put it in the water. Their intention was spend a week on this island, shipwrecked, but problems with the anchor made their week endeavor to 24 hours. This was just two of the projects they told us about. But with all of the works they did, it completely involved location, site effected how they did the work, what the work meant, and how people interacted with the work. They also said that  they never really see their work until they see how the viewer interact with the work.
Something that I can take from their work, even though I am not an installation artist, is seeing how people react to your work, so you know what to do for next time or to modify. I can also take the fact of how locations could easily change the concept of the work.
