Mobile Project

We have made pieces that sit on the floor or engage the walls but now we will make a piece that floats in the air. Using wood, cardboard, or found objects you will make a piece that hangs from the ceiling. This is an entry to the world of kinetic sculpture as well as occupying space away from a floor or wall. Each Mobile will need to have at least 6 distinct moving parts and all be supported by a single attachment point to the ceiling. We will further discuss the use of balance formally and physically and continue to explore creating volume. We will critique on November 18th.

Site Specific

Using cardboard and tape, you will construct a 3 dimensional object that occupies a specific space. This object must come in contact with at least 4 surfaces and will not fit in any other location. You will have 2 class sessions to work on this project, we will critique on October 23rd.
