Momento
This was my weakest project of the semester because of lack of time. We were tasked to make a small sculpture that reminded us of a memory from our lives. I chose the memory of moving into my house on my own and all the emotions and learning that came with the transition. We described our memories using the elements of design and came up with adjectives or characteristics that would define what our sculpture would look like. I chose to focus on the white walls and arches of my house. I also chose to keep the wood rough because the walls in my house are the same. The arches being stacked allow the viewer to see through the middle of the object. This for me symbolizes looking through the year that I have spent so far in the house.

Paper Hybrids
This project was based around creating two paper structures without using tape or glue. We started by making paper molds of natural and man made objects. We then cut up those paper molds to create an entirely new and innovative structure. It was easier to make the paper molds the more paper that you layered on top of each other. I molded a ping pong ball, a skate tool, a door stopper, and two bowls to create the two structures.

Traveling Structure
This project was one of the favorites from the semester. We were tasked to create a sculpture using certain materials on top of a monster truck so the sculpture would have the ability to move. I drew inspiration from Egyptian, gothic, and post modern architecture. I created the arches from gothic inspiration. I chose the triangular shapes based on Egyptian architecture. I chose to use the string and the aerodynamic design based on the modern architecture. My design attempted to incorporate the antennae of the monster truck because I felt that I was not move unless I did so. I used pins and glue to assemble the structure and used masking tape to trim the edges.

Water Fountain
This project was our first project and was one of our only projects where the goal was to replicate a certain structure. A water fountain was assigned to each student to be replicated with cardboard and duct tape. This project was intimidating at first, however, once we got started I was able to create a good agenda to get the project done. This project was enjoyable once I saw the finished product coming together.
