Week 13 Assignment - Unseen Places
Okay this week was kinda interesting as I wanted to create something more pretty and appealing to the rest of the class. I think that people enjoy the little creatures I made previously ( at least those that I spent less than 2 hours on.... seems the more time I spend on a project the more noticeably frustrated the work becomes ) . I couldn't find anything around Wurster so I plundered my studio. Seems I have a thing for Octopusses ( that's right....OCTOPUSSES not OCTOPI )....
I wasn't satisfied with the pics from that night so I reassembled it on the balcony in the tower. Tried to give the pics an ethereal feel.





Holds up, all these strange creature combos--but how you shoot the photo is really important. The over-all here doesn't quite get the magic of how this looked in class. Nevertheless, I remain an octo-fan...
ReplyDeleteOverall, Casto, I'm glad you used the semester to show us sides of yourself that we might not have predicted. I think that's been healthy, all around--and that you've probably learned from it. I know that sometimes you've veered towards the ones "everyone will like" (rather than your more gnarly visions). That's an inner dialogue that you need to go on exploring.
ReplyDeleteIn terms of the seminar, this term--delight was important--and you created several of those moments!
