Negative Shape

Negative Shape - The Defining Attribute takes what starts out as an artistic concept and expands and explodes its application in a wide area of experiences and relationships. Negative shape explores the BETWEEN. Negative space is quantitative. It tells about how far how long and how much. Negative Shape explores what we do WHILE we move closer; what we do AS we close the gap between now and next. Proximity is the negative shape that describes expectation and anticipation; wishing and hoping. Christine Archer explains that recognizing how we can use the negative space to evaluate what has happened and prepare for what comes next makes it a real and tangible part of our experience. It's not just wait time. By seeing it as shape we can make it a valuable tool in our understanding that planning waiting and creative process are essential components of how we perceive and understand who we are and what we can become. Decision-making evaluation and judgement occur outside the event; in the negative shape that is the BETWEEN. Soundly grounded in artistic theory this book is also a deeply personal anecdotal narrative of one person's experience with Negative Shape - IN the Negative Shape.
