i didnt like it. typography was ok but nothing smart.
the whole project was more self serving. as in art for art sake. maybe one can argue that that's what art is but I find it rather boring and contrived.
if the point was to provide insight into their lives, I dont believe it or buy it, as point of relationship is that it is unexpected and emotional. this lacked both. if it was to be viewed as retrospective, i find it uninteresting and did not meet what they set out to do.
"40 days: the commitment, time, companionship, joys and frustrations. Can they help each other, or will they fall into their same habits? Will they damage their friendship? What if they fall in love?"
the whole point, it lacked. it failed as an experiment from artistic perspective as well as interpersonal interaction. both took themselves too seriously and didnt try to really provide insight nor point of view on the subject. it did not distort the normality for the audience but rather became a stereotypical student art experiment at first year level.
at the end we make fun because it just fucken sucked. wtf was this bullshit. that is all.
