PROVOCATIONS
WHAT IS PROVOCATION?
Put simply, provocations provoke!
They provoke thoughts, discussions, questions, interests, creativity and ideas.
They can also expand on a thought, project, idea and interest.
Provocations can come in many forms:
·
An
interesting photo, picture or book,
·
Nature
(e.g. specimens)
·
Conceptual
(e.g. changing seasons, light)
·
Old
materials displayed in a new way,
·
Questions
(from any source – i.e. What is gravity?)
·
An
event (e.g. a presentation, a holiday)
Provocations can be as simple as a
photo of a rock sculpture next to some pebbles or as elaborate as a table with
an assortment of recycled materials next to a book on robots and resources to
make recycled robots. Often though, provocations are simple and displayed
beautifully to provoke interest.
