Complete Incompleteness


Recently when creating models I have been leaving the traces of my process. It just seems right for them to be in an incomplete state. Similar to the urban environment it is never resolved but maps peoples dreams and imaginations yet to come. I have been looking at artists who reveal their process in their artwork and their reasons behind it. Contemperary artist Francis Alys considers the process as much of an artwork as the final product. He believes that the creative process before the work is the most lively moment of the art piece.
