INTIMATE SPACE
To international art students, to whom it may concern,
The artist Georgia Creimer has a new project entitled INTIMATE SPACE. It is a project in
conjunction with the Youth Olympic Games 2012 in Innsbruck, Austria. INTIMATE SPACE
was among the five selected projects of an art and construction competition within the
framework of the building project for the Olympic Village in Innsbruck.
OPEN CALL FOR PICTURE CONTRIBUTIONS
Georgia Creimer is looking for art students from around the globe to participate in the project. They are hereby invited to submit a photographic interpretation of their own “intimate space”, where it is possible for them to relax and where they can reflect and find themselves. The chosen place doesn't need to be understood as a physical or spatial location, it can also be thought as something abstract, like something in a person's mind.
A short text (max. 60 words) should accompany the picture, revealing something about the subject or the artist's relationship with it.
From those who send in their photos, 42 contributors will be selected. Each photo will be digitally processed into monochrome colours, coloured in one of five colors of the Olympic flag (red, blue, green, yellow and black), while the text will be represented in the sixth colour, white. Both picture and text will finally be printed on floor-to-ceiling glass panels (180 x 240 cm)
and permanently installed in the 42 floors of six buildings in the Olympic Village.
Furthermore the selected contributions will be presented on the project's website and in the art-book documentation of INTIMATE SPACE, within which the contributions will also be shown in their original, unprocessed form. Every participating artist will receive a copy of the art-book as a token of gratitude.
