Room Project -parasitical space engagement

Initial Idea
:coming from the spatial class where bunch of students usually sit in group like some sort of magnet, sculpture class was quite a change. At first it was bit weird to see people having individual space, some sticking to the wall like a gum.... (no offence!)
Another thing which I was keep observing, even before I joined the sculpture class, was the way
people sit inside the bus. I always take bus on the way to school and the way back home. It was quite a nice enclosed area to notice how humans engage each other. I strongly notice how everyone wants and likes to sit next to the window, again sticking like a gum. 90% of the people will always choose to sit in an empty area rather than sitting next to some strangers.
so I sort of designed a bus called " Everyone wants to sit next to Window" Bus, covering almost all the surfaces with glass, and realized people will now feel rather insecure, having too much transparancy. like human having a bone without skin.
Then I came to sculpture room and noticed how there are so many windows, and initially thought I could use it to create a bus like structure.. However, after lot of sketching, I thought it would be too literal, and wanted to convey the idea of "individualism" in less direct and more interesting way.

Process
After seeing sculpture students work and talking to couple of them, I was surprised to see the contrast of the way people work in Fine art from design. Especially I would say Charlie seemed to be a classic fine art student- having his own phase of working. creating his own working environment(he was making a working board for his own desk)
I was impressed by his deep engagement with one medium- concrete. So I thought it would be more interesting to engage with a sculpture student,(they are the ones who make up the atmosphere of the room) rather than just having my work hanging on the wall. So I thought of making a sort of a room for him and his desk,. in a room(sculpture room), sort of caging him with bars - with designs which I had in mind for making a bus. anyway I picked him cuz he was kind enough to allow such annoyance as well.!

Final outcome..?

Another idea which was going through my mind was the spatial design project which I was meant to do if I didn't swap to fine art. -called "Parasite". creating a parasitical design and bla bla bla.... you know , grass is always greener in the other side. so suddenly got this desire of creating something parasitical... you know (temporarily regreting of my change...? only for a while!:p)
so I thought...why can't I incorporate two ideas?
why can't Charlie be my 'host' and I be the 'Parasite'. So I decided to create something which is some sort of an extention,, continuation of idea, so I start to knit,, -saw my hallmate knitting , seemed interesting,, and you know as you knit, you are sort of reproducing the same shape.. something biological I thought.. It could be sort of connecting to the cages as again, a growing parasite.

so I made this wooden cage, after testing with my model( a wooden bar, wired and roped around, and plaster poured- mere experimentation). So I made a void rectangular solid with wood , exactly measure to fit into Charlie. Half way of creating it, I quite like the way it was just obstructing the area within the classroom and just wanted to leave inside void. So I left it ... and though, should I complete it by drilling 2 more wooden bars.. but wouldn't like it as it would turn into an object..
so I left the 2 bars away from the semi-cage... and I researched into more of type of parasite, and some of them did not stay in one host but moved around.. so I thought,
Charlie can be my first host while, the cage become parasite as it is meant and made to be fit into his space, then, that semi cage becomes the host and the other 2 wooden bars become the parasite, as those two were made and meant to fit into its structure..

and yeah.. I like the way people were struggling ...to move... and to add to the annoyance, I connected the thread from knitting around the classroom so draw attention to the personal space students use...

and I bet tomorrow people will have quite trouble moving around!
