An essential part of my work was for natural light to pour in from above it as I felt this to be in harmony with the materiel and the construction of it. At first I wanted it to engulf one of the shafts that lead up to a skylight in the corridor as I believed this could create a harmonies look to the work. I was told this would not be allowed so I then wanted to hang it in the tool room where it was possible to hang it from existing supports. This would make it loss the engulfing effect that I wanted, however would still allow the natural light to filter through from the sky light above. Four days before hand in it was then decided by higher authority’s that the only place it was allowed to hang was in a dark cupboard with an electric strip light above. Needless to say I am not happy with this but it is the only place I am allowed to display. I have been this is for health and safety and liability reasons, but as far as I understand if it is not in black and white it is not health and safety but liability. If this is true I wonder if I get artists liability insurance will I be allowed in future to display my work. As almost all of my work previous work was displayed from the ceiling I will have to restrain my creativity in future.
