To collectively investigate the following parameters in a project that relies equally on the audience and the performers. a. How our experience/understanding of the sculptures depend on external information. b. The sculptures ability to engage in a dialogue with additional cultural practices. 2. To go encourage the audience a. To go beyond immediate personal opinion regarding exhibited works. b. To feel comfortable and relaxed in their individual experience of Art.
