DURING AND AFTER THE INSTALLATION
Setting up the installation was a difficulty to my intention, since the fabric was too heavy to withstand. The fabric was a bit loose due to the mass and the amount of tension wasn't enough for a single person to stretch. Even if there was enough tension, the fabric sheet wasn't thick enough when tying the strings, so it tore off immediately. But that didn't stop the installation from continuing, since stretching the installation was a small factor, while the messages were the main purpose of the installation. Luckily, I was able to tie one sheet as an example, while I display the other sheets with the help of my friends.
Since the installation was set at the entrance of the faculty, passersby were curious and looking down on the installation if there was something inside the fabric. But I couldn't tell if the thoughts of the audience after experiencing and reading the messages changed. For some reason, I had a feeling that the messages were questioning life issues of the audience, whether choosing to study architecture would alter the future.

Overall it was an ok presentation, but it was disappointing that the installation didn't turn out to be as expected. I wouldn't blame that the lights were shut down during the review, but somehow it kind of ruined everyone's mood.
