Wall, J 2013, Summer afternoons, Left 183 x 212.4 cm, Right 200 x 251.5 cm, Art Gallery of New South Wales
The use of installation and colour is of particular interest to me with these more recent works of Jeff Wall's.
Are the two subjects in the yellow house in a relationship? the woman on the right has a look of boredom - is she bored with him or just waiting for someone else?
Installing these side by side strengthen's the enigmatic qualities of both works.
Lassery, E 2014, Untitled (Stool_Legs) A Print Walnut Frame Carpet 36.8 x 29.2cm
Elad Lassery is an excellent reference to using objects, such as carpet in this image to transform the two dimensional image into a three dimensional object. As Lassry says, “I don’t think of them as photographs. I think of them as objects. I think of them as something that is suspended between a sculpture and an image.”
Lassery, E 2011, type C print, painted wood, 36.8 × 29.2 × 3.9 cm
I particularly like the use of Elads's modus operandi of painting the frame in a similar hue as the colour. Again this transforms the image into a 3D object with the frame becoming an extension of the image rather than 'framing' the image.
Calypso, J 2018, The Salon, Installation View, Digital Animation by Geriko, Galeria Melissa, London
Juno Calypso has collaborated with 3D animation specialists to create animations that were played on large screens at her recent exhibition 'The Salon'. One, I find it interesting she is branching out to installation based work and no longer titled a 'photographer'. Her interests in the full immersive experience through installation, sound, visual, smell is something I would like to experiment with for my final exhibition for Masters next year.

This and the succeeding 2 images are also from Calypso's The Salon installation based exhibition - are also here to reference the lighting and mood she created.

Sylvester, D 2018, Installation view, Out of Life, Sullivan & Strumf
In Darren Sylvesters recent show he created large format images of a character from 1 1970's science fiction film - the installation of the Ouija Board propped on what looks like to be moon-like ground adds to contextualising the work.
