For my Art and Design Studio assignment I had to produce a work biased loosely on "narrative of self". I was not super happy with were i ended up but it was an interesting process. Here is what I wrote to explain my work.
"For my final piece I have crafted the entire bench top
surface of my kitchen from cardboard so that it is raised up to a height that
is convenient for me. For some years now
I have found bench tops and other parts of houses to be a poor fit for myself
as I am a rather tall person. This cardboard installation is more of a sketch
showing how things could be in a world ideal for myself but inconvenient for
others. The aesthetics of the cardboard help to establish a sense of this being
not so much a permanent fixture and more a proposal of a possibility. I came to
this final work because I was experimenting with scale and proportion and I
feel that this fits well as this work puts the kitchen into the
same scale as me. I am presenting photographs of my work because it would be
almost impossible to bring the pieces I have made in and once they were out of
context they would make very little sense."
More work that I am doing/have done can be seen on the blog that I use for my Digital Design and Visualization class.
