Artist and narrative;






From the client description, a person who displays art away from the mainstream i immediately thought human sculpture due to the bustling and cosmopolitan nature of the site. I eventually settled on a sculptor who focuses on the opposite, isolation, clean cold precision and mechanical like forms; Antony Gormley, a sculptor from the UK. I thought that the compliments and contrasts of the artworks displayed would compliment newtown well; and leave much room for interpretation. Gormley uses drawings as a means of developing and compliment his sculpture; and i was to intergrate this into my design.

From the context of the site; the client description and my artist, i developed the following narrative to base my design.

" A measured and quiet artist envelops himself in modular logic, a retreat and safe vantage amongst urban chaos ".
