Fluxus action art post surgery - ideaaa

doing it on door

used red paint as base. thats what had to hand

Trying to find studio footage of action art.

 

Action art is a lot about movement so camera doesn't matter as artist is moving above, whereas the point of mine is that i wont really b able to move so i need to think about camera placement as this will affect whether the audience can see the painting or not.

Could use this to my potential? create a silhouette kinda thing in low lighting so its more about the movement of body and the restriction of my arms rather than the actual painting which could be revealed at the end?

want to watch more video art? 

action painting:

decide where to do it??

and shot and angle ideas

trying to find refs from studio footage for shot and angle insp…

door longways or upright?

Action paintings

To dos:

Draw out map for where lights and camera could go ??

prep paint - needs mixing with water? could do tests do see paint to water ratio?

watch vids and look in expressionist book 

QUESTIONS TO FIGURES OUT:

-How do i want to film it/set it up?
-Lighting?

-Door fill the frame or no?
-Landscape or horizontal door??

-Paint consistency

-Time it?? or could do til I cba or am too tired? that could take forever tho.

- how long after surgery should i do it??? ask desiree about movement aaron .

What I do Know

- want it to be a one session painting.
- three colours -- red, black n white

Supplies:
- table for paint an water and tissue and brush

- door,

- camera

- webcam too?

to dance again series? maybe rename it??? 
about reclaiming body/somatic therapy/movement etc. kind of own personal documentation. 

Thinking to self that the final painting isn't the point of it or even worth showing at the end, but if that's so, why paint at all? its a piece about movement (the lack of it) but why have paintings in the first place if that makes sense??

Guess it is about movement, but feels more like performance/video art ?
