Today I visited the Turner Prize at the Tate Britain. I found it very interesting because it was very different from the other art and design exhibitions I've been to.
There were 4 artists competing for the prize, Dexter Dalwood, Angela De La Cruz, Susan Philipsz and The Otolith Group. I liked particularly Susan Philipsz's work, when I entered her exhibition room, I was totally captured by her sound piece and I sat there for a very long time just to let myself be fully immersed into the atmosphere of the room.Therefore, in my opinion she should win the turner prize because her work had the most impact on me, and I could notice that her work had a great impact on other people as well since there were many of them sitting in the room.
I didn't like The Otolith Group's work at all, I just couldn't understand it and there was too much going on in the exhibition room: information overwhelming.
I've read articles about this prize and found it absolutely confusing, therefore, I enjoyed the exhibition a lot but not so much reading about it.
