time capsules

Here are two sketches of the time capsules I decided to pick as my final two. I had a hard time illustrating the wire and shading it without getting too much charcoal on it. I also think that the whole at the top is just a little too dark.
This is the time capsule I have chosen to work with in the end. The infamous cube...It was sort of hard to shade the black because I knew it was black but not as dark in areas as I first assumed.

metamorphasis

This week we were asked to take two fellow classmates previous projects and combine them into one. This was quite a stretch for me because Sarah's designs were so simple and Stephanie's were a little more crazy. And beyond that I really did not want to have to construct another box out of matte board. Here are some of my brainstorming ideas...

These are the two projects I decided to work with. Stephanie's project is the feather "jungle" and Sarah's is the matchbox pencil holder.
Here is the iteration that is leaning towards Stephanie's project more. I will never look at feathers again after cutting that many out. The biggest trouble I had was trying to find a glue that didn't make the paper crinkle, and would not leave a greasy residue behind. Paper cement seemed to peel off as soon as I made the creases but in the end that is what I ended up sticking to, it was the only one that wouldn't leave the greasy residue behind.


Here is my middle mix of Sarah's and Stephanie's. I took the concept of Sarah's pencil box and the feather form from Stephanie's.


Here is my iteration that was more like Sarah's. I kept with the natural paper but found one that looked like it had flecks of feather's in it to mimic Stephanie's and I chose to put the turquoise feather inside as the pencil holder because in Stephanie's project the turquoise egg is hidden in the middle. I felt like it would be a more suitable place than putting a feather latch on the outside.

METAMORPHASIS!

Self Portraits!

This week our assignment was to make 2 self portraits a day through Thursday and construct some kind of stand to display them in the lobby. Here our my portraits, I wanted to represent my eclectic-ness so all of my portraits are completely random and have no connection besides me.

Memory Box

First Iteration
As I was brainstorming memories that I wanted to use for this project I kept thinking of memories with my dad. I couldn't limit myself to one memory, and as I began to talk to other people about it they suggested maybe that it isn't necessarily what we do together but it is the bond that we share. So I went from there sketching out different ways to show a bond. I decided I would go with the weaving one because it was simple, yet was able to show a strong bond. I compared the bond we share to my brother and sister's bond with my dad. Their bond isn't bad by any means, yet I feel like ours is the strongest by far.

Second Iteration
My second iteration I decided to change the color of the paper to distinguish the different between my dad and the siblings. I also decided to weave all three sides, instead of leaving the other two solid to be able to compare the strength of the bonds.

Final Iteration
The last iteration I decided to make a little bit bigger. I felt like it was just a little too small to show the bonds. I also cut the strips of paper of my dad different sizes to illustrate the different memories we had together, some being bigger than others. I also bonded it together a little bit differently which resulted in a lot more cleaner, simple edge.
