case study

The way to display

The exhibition in VA museum, disobedient objects, indicate the relationship between the social movement, history and social struggles.

I am inspired the way how they classify the object by their function 

Making word 

Speaking out 

Solidarity

Direct action

A multitude of struggle 

the case study of form

I want to use the method which is the museum use, the final outcome might be a category and objects. 

case study

I want my work can interact with the audience ,so I will keep thinking how to place the object 

The idea of classify

It is an interesting idea to classify the animal.   Jorge Luis Borges introduces a new way to classify the animal we familiar, It might be a good idea to classify my object in an imaginative way. 

The list divides all animals into one of 14 categories:

• Those that belong to the emperor
• Embalmed ones
• Those that are trained
• Suckling pigs
• Mermaids (or Sirens)
• Fabulous ones
• Stray dogs
• Those that are included in this classification
• Those that tremble as if they were mad
• Innumerable ones
• Those drawn with a very fine camel hair brush
• Et cetera
• Those that have just broken the flower vase
• Those that, at a distance, resemble flies

Classify the unclassifible--------Collect

I am interested how the museum constructs the stories. The museum claims that they 

tell stories through objects, however, we can keep the object, but we cannot preserve the condition we use it. In this case, I keep recording the invisible and unspoken message, it also indicates the gap between the object and meaning。

object is nothing but tool

Experience

When I visited the museum of London, I found an interesting exhibition which is the 

reconstruction of a street which in the past London, Then I realized the museum always try to give the audience a scene through objects, the most important is the scene rather than the object. The object is only the tool to drive the storyline. Objects are classified into different categories,for example, a shell in the British  Museum is in the money exhibition,however,in the museum of London, it might be in the exhibition which is the London before London.   Whether the object in different categories will affect how we see the object? What's the gap of the object  between different categories?

The label of category comes from the British museum.
