In the Sights and Sounds Exhibition at the Toledo Museum of Art, there were a lot of inspiring and creative works on display.  The one that inspired me in relation to my BFA project was called Woldgate Woods, Winter, 2010 by David Hockney.  It was a nine videos on nine monitors that was slightly out of sync.  His artist statement says that the piece is “a continued exploration of time, landscape, and memory.”  He created this piece by using nine different cameras filming the woods.  I was also thinking about displaying my images on nine different monitors and seeing his work gave me the idea of having different parts of an image switch out with parts of other images change on the monitors, to create an even greater sense of unstable space and nature.

Another piece I enjoyed was the black and white film photographs of the trees.  They were the same image, but one was inverted.  I liked how they were displayed, where the viewer had to walk behind a black curtain to see them, and they were dimly lit.  Depending how things pan out, this might be another option for display in the gallery.
