SKETCH: LINEARITY

This sketch explores the relationship between linear and non-linear events. How is narrative created using a series of linked events? And if those events are taken out of order, how does this affect the creation of meaning? I took a simple task such as washing a dirty dish, and changed the order of it. While the content is still there, the reading of it is slightly altered, often suspending/distorting the audiences perception of the reality of the piece.

This relates to the specific shot in Art in the Streets, where the wall has already been shown to be completed, prior to the time-lapse where the wall is painted. While this may cause confusion in a traditional narrative, the hybrid aspect of this form makes it more acceptable to have inconsistencies within the continuity of the piece.
