We intend to create a "forest" in the Hunt Library stairwell. We plan to use translucent paper, opaque paper, projectors, shadows, etc. to create an ambient forest that people can walk through on their way in the stairwell. This idea plays off of the original forest set up in the Hunt stairwell and it also incorporates ideas from the paper installation in the studio.
We want to use translucent paper to create the greenery and leaves of trees and bushes (translucent paper in particular because it allows light to travel through and will cast a green hue on the wall). The opaque paper will not allow light to be shown through so we will use this for branches, vines, and other silhouettes. Also, if all goes according to plan, the shadow of the viewer will be cast onto the wall as if they are a part of the scene.
The setup of this installation will be in such a way that the paper scene will be attached on the railing side of the stairs. Then, the projector will shine onto it and cast the scene onto the wall side of the stairs.
