Change?

So there's about a week left until i have to hand in my work and set up for an exhibition. The problem im having is that i wont be able to get my piece finished the way i want it on time. I have hugely underestimated the time it takes to prepare a metal frame from scratch and there is a lot more work to it that i had thought. So at the moment, all i have is a metal frame without the internal poles. This was starting to worry me, but it might be successful as it is. This made me think, by changing a piece of work, how much are you altering its meaning and purpose? I think slight alterations can make a big difference so what does this mean for my piece now? Well my proposal now is to have this frame resting on a wall at an angle with 4 scanners mounted on the wall (unfortunately they wont be working). I got these ideas from my last crit where people were concerned about how much time i have left. To begin with i was against the ideas but now see that they make sense and are my only real option. The original idea of the work was to evoke a sense of intrusion and discomfort, but with this revised plan, it wont achieve these qualities. I think that by showing it as a 'work in progress', it is quite vulnerable. I quite like this idea that something that's meant to be menacing is vulnerable but this will be lost on the audience.
