Assessment 1

The purpose of this exercise was to depict complex realities into more abstract interpretations, around the central concept of 'negative space'(Rachel Whiteread). This would be done through the development of both analogue and digital skills.

This was a great opportunity to balance the heavy emphasis on digital skills at the institution with hand skills, getting in touch with the process of making and plaster casting. Even though my first attempt failed, a greater appreciation for the process, resulted in a successful outcome later. The 3D objects were modeled in Rhino and rendered, very poorly, in SketchUp. The elevations were produced in VectorWorks.
