Inflatopia starting model





Ok so I know that the model doesnt look like the sketch I have and thats because after I got through with the model I had more ideas for my sketch and I wasnt exactly sure how to make the modifications to my model. So basically my idea for inflatables is to create a dome shaped object that is filled with the letters that spell WASH and have the letters just kind of go everywhere inside the dome and make the people who walk in the dome have to push through the letters. Them pushing through the letters and the struggle that they would have to go through is how I feel about wash, it was pretty cool at first but then I felt like I was struggling and just having problems but I know that if I keep going and are determined then I can make it through. The place that is on my presentation board is actually the wrong place because my team keeps flip flopping between where we want to set up our inflatopia piece.
But yes this piece is a personal piece to me and even though I feel like Im struggling I know that I can get through this.

Performance Piece critique

Ok so my performance went ok, I used a stuffed animal for my prop and acted like I was looking for it, so I kept calling out the name kitty and then once I couldn't find it I gave up and then I found him. What I should've worked on was an element of mystery and instead of calling out the name kitty I should've called out another name and also it seemed like I had given up a little early, I should've dragged out the searching part. 


Not my performance piece, this is Emily my tablemate and she wanted me to video her performance

More for myself

So this is actually more for myself and I wanted to post it here. Since the beginning of WASH I resisted most of the projects and frankly just didn't understand the point of them or why it was so hard for me to come up with something that I thought was worthy of making. I admit I am insecure about my artwork but then again who isn't at some degree? Something over Spring Break clicked inside my head and actually it was a statement from my hair dresser lol it's funny how other people say something and it totally makes sense. I give kudos to Sarah for making the lightbulb go off in my head, wash is about finding yourself and your niche and that you want to show people how you view the world through your artwork. I admit I am slow because I have no idea why it just wasn't making sense until now, now I enjoy WASH and the critiques (even though I do get nervous about them) but I wont let them get me down if I have a bad one, I look at them as learning opportunities to get better and explore the art world. And Kathy this is for you, I really have this urge to just make more modular madness stuff and create more sculptures, yes I want to do nature installation pieces in my front yard. Im proud that Im learning more about myself on this adventure
