Intro/plaque
Below is my brainstorming for the content of my introduction/plaque. This shall accompany the exhibition, providing insight into the reasoning for the project. It shall contain the following, elaborated:
- Introduction to a Sonnet.. what is a sonnet?
- the timelessness of Shakespeare's work: how the stories, characters and situations are still relevant to a contemporary audience
- The problems encountered when accessing the language and narrative present within the Sonnets
- The importance of the VISUAL:
- I am creating a visual platform for 'readings' of the sonnets
- The visuals will highlight some of the multiple various interpretations that are possible
- I am designing a stage for the sonnets, similar to a theatrical production
- This in turn informs the visual framework for viewer interpretations
- The language is given a visual-aid, while maintaing the important contrasting elements of the spectacle and intimacy of the poems
