It has come to the end of the module which surprisingly, made my heart heavy to tear it down. Even the 'Tear it down' Day already made it sound depressing.

Not in my imagination that I thought that all the themes given was actually O level themes. At first, I thought, oh really? So now, we are being compared with O level kids? But hey, think again, it doesn't matter about whatever the theme was. The theme can be as simple as... err maybe, "Dreams". Anyone can do it, any age and any gender, and any qualifications that you have. Degree or whatsoever. It all depends how we are willing to stretch ourselves and push our limits to show the capability of the theme itself.

The Stretch that we pull can go as far to go to performance art, conceptual and so on, and again it depends how relevant your work is to the theme and how you intepret it. In the end, what I was aiming for is

1) How it relates to the theme
2) It has to define 'me'
3) It captures a certain attention
4) It could very much interest and inspire students during studio creation.

This 4 main factors is my drive in making my 3D work. I don't wish to elaborate much but this year has been meaningful. 2 modules Ive taken have made me found myself and what kinda practice and what I like in my art. It all comes back to archi + sculpture + sharp + minimalist + black and white works.


Kudos to everyone, this has been an amazing journey.

Hugo Boss Display

I just had to post this up. Made me miss my airplanes but HEY! look, it has all the pyramidical shapes too! I love it when they give a sleek sharp yet simple and outstanding display.

Set up Day!




















I was actually excited and equally nervous because everything place as important role at this stage.
The placement, organisation of each pyramids (patterns/plain sides), the lightings, the size of the pyramids will collaboratively work together to make a successful piece.

Was asked to shift to the other side of the wall, cos it seems that my work seems to be a little bigger than expected. Stapled gun-ed, thumb tack-ed, everything -LAH! And its all up! :)




Placement 101





My past work was on the floor and I was thinking whether I should do the same. I played around with the spaces, the depth and the volume of each pyramids made. Somehow, this time around, mounting it on the wall seems to work. the sharp pointy pyramids seem to craves more attention and  accentuates its volume and depth.

I tried to place it and shape it into circles and mount it on the wall, but it doesn't seem to balance and work for me. Hence, Mount on the wall FOR THE WIN!

Of different sizes, shapes, angles, I kept continuing and be 3-Dimensional. I did as much as pyramids as I could so I can always play around with the placement just in case. The more the safer, so I always have back -up pyramids to play with.
