• Seeing is to understand. We understand the world based on how we see it
• Nazvabz suggests that shadows are moving rather than still
• How do we see and experience the world in different ways?

Turrell:

• Places with a powerful quality
• Creating the reality in which we live
• Exploring light and colour
• Receivers of light rather than creators
• Value light – realising value in what you see, bring out things you aren’t paying attention to

It wasn’t until starting the visual observation exercise where I noticed myself falling under the selfish habit of not paying attentions to things. I would pay attention to the obvious, and struggle/be too lazy to dive into the finer details of what I was observing.

The visual observation in the State Library was an interesting exercise. I found that everything was virtually symmetrical and very much identical. The diversity within the massive hall also stuck out to me a lot too – difference in people, lighting spots, colour arrangements – yet everything was pretty much identical. Very interesting mix.
