progress



These are my pictures from last weeks project. The vessels on the top are supposed to represent the verb twist. The small cup in supposed to represent the verd distort. I made four of the twist vessels and four of the distort cups.The next project is a mixed media project. I would like to keep throwing, but I'm not sure what to do yet. Brian was saying I sound think about displaying my work on a different media, but I'm still not sure what I want to do. I was thinking about constructing some kind of a lamp, but I'm not sure. I was feeling bad last class so I didn't get to make clay, but tomorrow in class I'm going to make clay and get started on the next project.

verb project

For the verb project I decided to to do two different verbs I chose "to twist" and "to distort". I chose two because want I was going to do for distort was easy and I wanted to do a little extra. For twist it was difficult to get the cylinder to twist in a way that looked intensional. I had a hard time being consistent, but after some trail and error I think I figure out a good way to achieve the twist. For distort I wanted to make some coffee mugs without handles, so I squeezed them and created a nice spot for your fingers to hold the mug. I tried to insert images, but my computer would not allow me to.
