'burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow romance candles'

The boxes are under way...im experimenting with different materials that i can make the boxes out of...and also what im going to fill them with.
the boxes themselves are going to be based on my urban surroundings and my reaction to it. i want to encorporate the emotions that i have felt up here such as apprehension(when i first arrived)lonliness(because i left home) and many more feeling that i have experienced up here.
the boxes are my journey..but also i want other people to experience there own while interacting with it.


there will be 12 boxes...i think! im still in the process of thinking about the amount i want, because i feel that if there is 12 that i will be repeating myself alot and that I DO NOT WANT TO DO! so maybe i will choose 6 boxes!
each box will house a different SENSE and EMOTION! this will be done (hopefully) by using sight, sound,colour and touch!
(i think that our senses have alot to do with our emotions so thats why i am using them to trigger feelings)

the first box will be APPREHENSION...you will have to put your hand into the unknown! there will be a hole jsut big enough to fit your hand..and inside will be dark with some sort of substance in it!
the reason im doing this is to show how i was feeling the first day i came up here! that feeling of the unknown and what to expect!the fear of a new place!

the following boxes will be filled with noise, colour and touch!

but im still thinking about those...so watch this space!
