Critical elements for successful curation are how space is used, the contextuality of the exhibition, how it is mediated to the audience. In order to covey the fear of being a member of the marginalised community, and to manifest and celebrate the sense of oneness, I chose to incorporate various design ideas. By taking influence from Juanan Requena's warm exhibitions, I put together a collage, a photo Journal, moving image and surreal digital manipulations. Requena's curatorial designs are unique, and it effortlessly mediates the subject to its audience. A table and a warm light to set the journal on was used to create a sense of domesticality. Warm light evokes emotions such as fear, caution, intensity and happiness. Thus, the selection of the light works well with the intention. As I have a limited space to work with, I will be extending the design aspects during the project space one exhibition.
