Epic Space Part B

We got the second part of this project a little while ago and the brief seems fairly straight forward. They wanted us to propose a design concept for the part adjacent to the reservoir. I thought easy! But i was sooo wrong. i just thought of a few simple things and jotted them down, without considering the things the area needed or the originality in my design overall. I didn't think of the more recent movements of the things i was proposing and the whole idea was awful. After this was all told to me by Ed and Bridget i was forced to rethink my whole idea...But that kicked me into place. I started to consider something different and more original!

Guilford trip...

This is a photo of a swan in the canal when we were on the Way & Arunn. I thought it looked really nice so i just took a picture out of nowhere!

Ed! on his mobile, duno who he was talking to though! This was taken on our way back from town one day, what a long and tiring walk dat was...

Unfortunately they are the only photos that i have from the trip, my memory card decided to go AWOL and as soon as i put it in my laptop to save the pictures it told me i needed to format as they were corrupt, SHOCKING!

Epic space!

So we got the Part A for this project, seems kind of interesting..again though nothing like i imagined, what a random site to be honest! i guess not really but I'm just not used to this yet so seems kind of odd to me, all part of the development, right? i felt because of its position, and link to water i should have some kind of giant water feature! Unfortunatly i didnt make a model for this part of the project. Its a shame would have been interesting to see how it would look at the site...

Presentation day!

So we done our presentation today. Wasnt as bad as i thought it would be..kinda fun actually, really started getting into it at the end! Turns out our project was pretty good, im going to definiately look back on this when we get our nex project! I cant wait to get really stuck in...

Prep for Presentation!

so our 1st presentation is tomorrow, to be honest I'm kinda worried! I hate presentations...but my groups pretty well prepared i feel we are gonna do well! we decided on a feature that could be used as a stage area for outdoor presentation or plays..plus u could use the area as seating or shelter! This is a photograph of our model! After visiting the site and seeing the kind of things around it like Swans we decided that would be a good starting point, u can see the idea was much evolved but still has a feel of wings surrounding you...

Walk around kingston

We were in studio today and after doing some work, Ed and Bridget decided we should go for a walk along the river where our projects are supposed to be..From this little walk/visit we were able to determine exactly where we wanted our sculpture to be and see the characteristics of its surroundings! This was really help full...

1st project: Word association!

So as i said already we recieved out 1st project brief..seems interesting, we have been given a word and are asked to base our project around this word! They are expecting us to create some kinda of sculture or form that can be used on a daily basis for various activities. We have started to get some words associated to our word onto paper and brain storm..lets see how it goes....
