Making something positive out of frustration
In Italy you have lots of bureaucracy. It can be very frustrating to do things the official way. As a class we have discussed and witnessed firsthand some of the frustration of bureaucracy: IUAV website; bad studio furniture; renting out equipment; trying to make the Exquisite Corpse project with the whole class when the whole class is never in one place at one time; being constantly interrupted by each other as we are making the Exquisite Corpse project, not being able to realize an idea; noisy studio?
To begin the project, please research on the web a positive outcome from a frustrating moment. Email me a link and I will compile the links on the website.
