Project 2, FINISHED!

Journey
Dragons
Star Trek
Game of Thrones
Phoenix
Portal 



The coasters turned out exactly as intended! Super-duper happy about them and for completing them for use. I'll just have to fill the top with resin so they make a flat layer. Then, I plan on adding a layer or material, either gel or cork, to the bottom so they don't stick to tables as much.

The only thing I have to complain about is the holder. Unfortunately, a miniature test print proved that my original design had walls that were too thin. Therefore I had to redesign it so the walls were thick, which lead to the current design that I actually dislike because the walls are too thick (in my opinion). If I had the chance to redo it, I would fix/change the walls from being curvy to being straight on the inside and just adding curve to the outside.

"Landscapes of Memory..." Reading Response

I really appreciated reading this piece because it brought to light a view of the debated which I've hardly heard about or understood. I never thought about how seeing these figures or events being portrayed in positive or unrealistically ideal fashions could influence a viewer. As a response, I am still left unsure there is a right way with how to deal with the situation In my personal experience, I heard the problems people were having with these sculptures was merely rooted in the fact that they represented people and events as they were seen at the time, despite that it no longer follows the commonly accepted beliefs of the present. I understood this problem then to be emphasized by the plaques that were originally created to define the monuments for viewers with words that followed the old ideas. Therefor, I thought the problems were more in the need for the plaques to be updated with clauses that may or may not preserve the original intent, while building on to state the cu...

Project 3; Artist Research

Artist:  Camille Utterback Website:  http://camilleutterback.com/category/projects/ Entangled, http://camilleutterback.com/projects/entangled I love all of the work by Camille Utterback. I'm really glad she was pointed out to me, her style and principles are basically what I desire to grow my art into. I love how interactive she makes her art and the captivating colors she uses in everything. It's so abstract, which normally I would shy away from, but the fact that it changes based on the level of interactivity with the audience. I find it really fun and is a good way to pull the audience in to think about the theme Utterback is trying to portray.  While its really difficult to pick a single work I love the most, my favorite is probably Entangled (2015). Basically is is a two sides structure with projections and shadows of colors. Based on the movements of participants on either side, the art moves and changes. This is really similar to her e...
