I want this piece to be screened in the Tate Modern gallery in London, as it would be viewed by thousands while on display. Currently, work by Harun Farocki is being screened at the Tate Modern. I have visited this gallery myself, and as a non-gallery fan, I really enjoyed it and I think that a lot of people not interested in art go to the Tate Modern, as it is more of an installation gallery.
Visitors to the Tate Modern range from school age to the elderly, and therefore the video needs to be suitable for all ages. I have bared this in mind while deciding what each virtue will show.
I want the audience to learn from their experience while watching the video. I want them to see how they can react to situations they find themselves in daily, such as needing patience. I want them to come away with more than just a vague memory of the video, I want them to be affected by it, to remember it and to think of it when they are not sure what to do.
The installation itself will comprise of the video being shown on a diagonal screen and beanbags and chairs for people to sit on. Chairs will be mainly used for the elderly and disabled, as I want them to enjoy the video as much as any able bodied person could, and experience it as it is meant to be experienced, which is sat down and relaxed.
