Reflection
My idea going into this process was to communicate on three separate elements and principles of art. The first one is negative space (sculpture 1), repetition (sculpture 3), and a focal point (sculpture 2). I wanted to primarily focus on how I could transform each individual sculpture into a story, and also just a design. For example, sculpture three is based upon the deconstruction of cells. In this assignment, I learned how to use a 3d printer, even if my piece didn't end up being used. I want to keep exploring the Brown Innovation Center, as I believe that, while it’s tough, having that experience is rewarding. In making this sculpture collection, I pushed myself to think outside of the box and remind myself to not be afraid of using inspiration to spin my own designs. Moreso, I worked to find a fine line between theme and design. I struggle with not having clean pieces, so Treetops was an exploration of how I am allowed to be messy. Being raised by two fine artists whose styles primarily stick to realism, I find it hard to grasp abstract art sometimes, but this assignment enabled me to breathe.
