Things to consider
- Personal mapping/archaeology
- Use of a legend to read a map
- Keep drawing. The drawings are loose active and expressive. They are also a gift. A method for exploring ideas to add color to 3D objects without experimenting on the work.
- Get in the habit of making samples. Start to build a library of samples for material, surface, and color. Take detailed notes and include this information with the sample.
- In regards to the creeks, think about time and sequence
- Strive for forms that are richly processed (not just one thing)
- Make everything that comes as an idea, don’t try to make a consistent body of work, edit later
- Experiment with adding color to plaster works. It might make the work feel more complete and less familiar.
- In regards to the leaves, the specimen display emphasizes individualism and the content is more loosely implied. The monochromatic stacks are more mysterious.
- Consider how rigorous I have to be with personal/family content driven choices
- Where is the line between aesthetic and being faithful to memories?
- Expand the spectrum of work, include everything from diagrams/maps to objects
- Pedestals are the most neutral way to view a 3D artwork. Consider frames/pedestals as furniture contextualizing artwork within its time. Experiment with shelves/brackets, cabinets, tables, a set of shelves?
- Start experimenting with object arrangements. Look to modes of natural history display to start putting these objects together.
- If each object is one word, what sentence would they make when assembled together?
