In this project me and my group has aimed to deliver an experience which would enlighten and inform people. We wanted to change the way in which people would perceive the park and we hoped that through informing them of the past we may change the future, and may prevent people from taking this area for granted. We planned to create  site specific piece which would stop people who are walking around the park, and motivate them to think about the place that they see, and about the people who have contributed to the formation of the contemporary park.

In working with a group I found it challenging to collaboratively choose the idea that we will take as the main one, and go through with it. It was also slightly challenging to spread the workload according to everyones skill set due to the fact that our group had mostly similar knowledge. I was surprised by the fact that during the process of translating the ideas that we had in our heads onto material it turned out that we had different visions of what we want to end up with, yet we managed to resolved that issue swiftly and come up with a piece that was suiting the vision of all of us.

The critique taught me that we should have spent less time thinking up different ideas, and focused on the materiality of what we want to be our final piece. What we ended up with did not seem to convince the general audience due to its seemingly poor quality of assembly and looks that attracted attention, yet did not look like the objects are made to last. This made me realise that in the next projects I should prioritise the build quality higher.

I think that the piece was successful in the fact that the information was delivered in a clear concise way that was easy to read and easy to perceive, thus the goal of informing people was achieved swiftly. On the other hand, the build quality lacked therefore letting the idea down. That was what I would change if I was to repeat this project.
