Fly Draw, 2007 The flight path of a common housefly was filmed and recorded as a series of emotionless, computer-generated line-drawings. Visitors to the installation are requested to adapt the drawings themselves and create their own images using the fly's path as a basic structure. This work is yet another in a line of ‘drawing experiments’ by Catriona Shaw involving direct audience participation and hoping to change the viewers’ perception of art and what art can mean to an individual. Inspired by subjects such as Rorschach tests, Karma, anthropomorphism, communication between humans and nature and cultural misunderstandings, Shaw hopes to create an ongoing and playful study of communication and image interpretation based on one of the most (irritating) everyday and recognisable things – the common housefly. exhibition view, Lonnstrom Museum, Rauma, Finland |
