Kwon Chapter 4

In this reading Kwon talks about how a site based artwork to be site specific has to not just incorporate its surroundings but also to "foster social assimilation" with the people and community who see it. If it does not it can be considered what is known as "plop art." With the two put something here assignments I wondered how to avoid this and thinking about my final project I struggle with it even more. I wanted to create something meaningful but found that the simpler the idea the better, because I didn't want to try to say too much with whatever I made. However I'd like my final to be more involved. I don;t know how to balance saying too much and too little. By this I mean whatever social message I'll have.
