Eye-level at different stages

Dimension of the areas that will be covered with graffiti


Zoning
The red zone is the outside of the stall, which is the public space of girls bathroom. The graffiti on the mirror will be sweet and nice, which is like the icing on the cake. The boys will feel good about themselves when reading this. At the same time, they will see themselves in the mirror, which emphasize the idea of narcissism.

The grey zone is the inside of the stall, which is the private space for individual use. The graffiti on the walls will be really messy and quick. It will have girls' inner thoughts and what is normally unheard of. It is showing the darker side of women thoughts and truth. It is intended for boys to feel uncomfortable and a little shame.



Lighting
The installation will be presenting at night time. Although there're already artificial lights available, but i decided to add an extra light bulb on the top of my selected stall. This is to emphasize my installation, so that the audience ignore the other stalls and pay full attention to this area. 

Materials
On the mirror, the texts with be written by lipstick and erasable glass paint marker.
For inside the stall, I'll cover the walls with plan paper. The grey side has got the color that is similar to the original wall, so it can blend very well. Then normal pen or markers and be applied to the paper.
