Brief 3_exhibition "home sweet home"

firstly i came up my idea of a topic of 'home sweet home'
create a home feeling in the exhibition space, decorate the space like a home by using projection and real furniture.

what i came up with...
"For me, the most difficult part of creating artwork is not the process, is the inspiration which before starting the work. As I know, many students brainstorm at home, so do I. Home is the place we spend our time on doing assignment most. It is also the place to make us relax. Inspiration always comes to us when we are relax.
So home is the place to inspire me a lot.
In this exhibition, I am going to ‘decorate’ the space like a home. 4 senses will be experienced in the exhibition. "
