craft project redo words

this project is about the journey of a dot. I wanted to convey the wandering feeling of this dot by using blur in my photography. This also helps show the unknown of where you are going or where you just were with this box. The dot although confined by the larger circles that create the paths would also be lost without them. The box is a huge maze that can take you in circles forever until you fine the escape into the large white space. When you and our dot character reach this point in the box the dot goes back into the maze for more, will you follow?

Craft Project RE-DO!!

Postmortem

Craft observation

These cups are super detailed miniature pieces of art. I can only imagine how long it must have taken to finish this after constructing my own box and designing it. This was one of my favorites but they are all amazing. here is a link to view more. Good job not smudging any ink.

The story (below) is of an adventure. The dot out on a path moves quickly in some places and has to slow down in others. There are some obstacles along the way and sometimes the road gets blurry and some paths need to be chosen. When encountering the open white space originally I had imagined that the dot gets lost and turns back to the path, but after class like the idea that the dot goes back for more instead of the freedom of the white space.

I chose points for my story because I didn't want lines to be guiding or setting the path. I liked the idea of huge dots creating a path or a boarder that the smaller dot could not get through and would be forced to follow a path. The story might be different in the other medium by being more rigid and having a distinct path. There also would be a need for many more lines to fill up enough space to avoid having to much white space.

The photography of my cube helped to change the story by adding some blurry photos and shots with the cube not being in the center of the image. Being able to control the viewers eye helped me guide them from the left to right and added to the effect of following a path on a journey.
