Long-Term Indoor Installation

Dichotomy

This piece was mainly inspired by museum displays of dissection that feature whole specimens. Traditional dissection diagrams were often detailed, featuring many different descriptions of certain parts. I wanted to represent this by creating a space that resembled the same atmosphere of a museum, equipped with viewing tables and fossilized creatures. I created "amoeba"-like specimens out of air-dry porcelain clay. I built wooden boxes and painted them white to act as extensions of the wall itself. The panels on the wall worked as the diagrams that described the inside of the air-dry porcelain specimens. I'm pleased with the way these turned out because it was exactly how I'd imagined it in my head.

BFA Progress: Week 11

Past Work Current Work For this week, I decided to re-photograph all of my previous pieces in a normal setting. I used natural light on the patio but rigged a little "photo booth" area where I can get the most open space/light. I had to tweak the lighting a bit in order to ensure that I got the most vibrancy in the photos. Definitely liking the direction I've chosen to go. Of course, I do miss painting but these little pieces are so satisfying that they make up for it. I'll more than likely make some paintings on the side to boost my creative process.

BFA Progress: Week 12

For this week, I tried my best to photograph in different ways. I used the same set-up, however I wanted to know what grouping them more closely would look like. I enjoy both equally, but in order to get better images for the website, I figured getting more in one shot would be more helpful. I will probably have to re-photograph a majority of these as these photos were mainly grouped by when I made them so I could keep track of the work I'd already posted.
