Reflection Statement
The three sculptures visually communicate three separate scenes, all connecting through movement and visual power. While exploring the materials to build the sculptures, I wanted to focus on the visual appeal of each sculpture because the overall presence alone as well as a collection was the most important to me. I decided to include the balsa wood and drill because I had not had previous access to them for artwork. I felt the work was lacking subject matter, so I initiated the repetitive linework expressed throughout each sculpture. I want to keep exploring my personal motif as it shows up in each piece of work. I want to learn more about the various types of wood I am capable of using as it opens up the door for new opportunities. This piece allowed me to explore some materials that I had no experience with and have the power to tie in the experience with materials I previously knew of. The making of this work exposed new ideas such as meticulous detailing and purposeful line making.
