Here is my qcq on Concrete Blonde: A Probe into Negative Space where Mysteries are Created, by Joanna Merwood.

Quote: "The interplay between light and shadow in the architectural design creates an enigmatic atmosphere, leaving much to the imagination."

Comment: This piece beautifully captures the vibe and meaning of how negative space can show a sense of mystery and intrigue in architectural design. Joanna Merwood's analysis tells of the subtle yet powerful impact of what is left unsaid or unseen. This making the piece so much more powerful because of what isn’t present. More than what is.

Question: How does Merwood's exploration of negative space in architecture compare to its use in other art forms, such as painting or sculpture?

Here is my qcq on structural tension.

Quote:

"Tuazon's work is a dialogue between architecture and sculpture, where the structural integrity of materials is both challenged and celebrated."

Comment:

Architecture and sculpture could’ve worked in so many different ways. It could intertwine with each other like a nice double helix, or even the fact that it worked so well because it is the same at a certain point. I enjoy the work I saw and it’s quite interesting to me and how it will change my art.

Question:

How does Oscar Tuazon's use of industrial materials contribute to the overall theme of structural tension in his art, as discussed by Julian Rose?

Hello everyone,

This piece is about the pain that I have gone through in my past. I went through trauma for about 10 years and needed to make a piece on it to face what I’ve gone through and where. I went to my middle and high school and through talking to many people trying to get access I was able to get these three remnants of the past. I wanted to show the things that I can obtain from the past without too many people asking questions. The height represents the heigh each object is when I look at the details I remember as a kid. And surprisingly it is still there. All the little details I remember when I was receiving this trauma.

My shelter project is going to be a table with the styles of old folk Russian tables and a map in the center with a mountain overlooking it.

For my project I have made a table from my home town Novorossiysk. I laser cut the map of Novorossiysk in a piece of plywood. And put that on top of an other piece of plywood and added legs to it in the style of the folk tables that was shown in my research. The table is black emphasizing the Black Sea. Which the city is a port to. the mountain is made from my plaster head mold that I used for a deeper meaning. I made all of this in a span of the week.

What I enjoyed doing is making this with such a new perspective on what I see. I went to the library for hours and read so many books on the views on how others see Russians. And it’s not a great look because of the history of the past. But that isn’t always the full story. I was wanting to show there is more than just the people who run the country and the bad parts that people emphasized but the people who are from there and the land itself. I don’t mind being Russian. And I am happy to be one. I enjoy being different and having a And this table, which might be the first table I ever made, will not be my last.

My shelter project is going to be a table with the styles of old folk Russian tables and a map in the center with a mountain overlooking it. My idea is to have it be a kind of topographic holographic map. I want it to be etched into wood. And the legs will be in style of the tables shown.

Hello. This is my favorite and least favorite work in the ICA

the first one I choose was Skera. It is an amazing piece made from Dyed laser-cut silk single organza; cotton; wool; beeswax; waxed wool felt; 3D-printed polycarbonate; hand-blown glass; acrylic; epoxy resin; fiberglass; laser-cut steel; zinc-passivated steel. The piece makes me feel like there’s dreaded in the room and I love that feeling. It’s a very dark emotional and emotionless piece that I love and try doing all the time in my own pieces, in my own work and I enjoy that I could finally relate to a piece. When you look at it, it should bring your whole day down and not make you feel good and that’s what I absolutely adore, that this piece can convey that message by just being there no projections no noise just being there is all it needs.

The second piece is called Ring and Pole Series D. By Susan and Rodney Lubeznik. This piece was a glancing piece in my eyes. I saw it once it’s ok. And I just kept walking. Nothing intriguing for me about this piece. Is it made well. Sure. But it didn’t call out to me like the first piece.

Here is my project. Artist statement is in the description.

What I want to do for this project is make saran wrap versions of myself and have them in the positions drawn to symbolize isolation and the fourth dimension I want the saran wrap person which is just one person in different states of mind to have the feeling of escape and then entrapment in a split second. The intent is for them to feel like all that they’ve known is gone, and they are all alone in this room, unable to escape.

1. QUOTE -- Quote a portion of the resource you find compelling enough to discuss and question.

“Technocratic society, therefore, sees a dramatic shift, in which participation leads not to self-determination but, paradoxically, to alienation. "Ours is a society of alienation," Touraine writes, "not because it reduces people to misery or because it imposes police restriction, but because it seduces, manipulates, and enforces conformism." In other words, alienation is wrought by complicity and conformity, which ultimately serve to nullify or "manage" dissent. The programmed society, Touraine argues, amounts to an insidious yet potent system of "dependent participation?.

2. COMMENT -- Make a statement about your quote. Why did you select it, and what is your opinion about the quote? How do you relate to the information recorded, and what experiences influenced your understanding of the quote? (1-2 paragraphs)

I enjoy the thought of technology being the cause of our isolationism. The technology age is here and has been isolating our minds. Even though people are right next to us, we will never notice because of technology. We are so close to each other and yet so far. Our distance is quite unknown. Yes, we can now meet people states away, but it will never be the same as the real thing.

Yes, I believe there's immense potential in the technological world, but I also think we're becoming lazier by relying on it. The newer generation probably doesn't know half of what the previous generation did at the same age. Despite interacting with hundreds of people every day through technology, many still feel isolated. Having many people to talk to online is way different that a real human connection. It’s the lack of true communication. The real world experience that past generations know by just going day by day trumps what the newer generation has to deal with.

3. QUESTION -- Pose a question to the class to help provoke a discussion about your quote and comment. The question should draw opinions from your classmates. The questions should not necessarily be directed towards informational or technical concerns but more towards drawing others to discuss subjective thoughts and ideas. (1 paragraph)

I would like to ask the class about ways to make the current world look up at their surroundings and not on their devices. What are their pros and cons to the isolation that technology has made. And how we as artist can change the way people use their devices.

4. IMAGE -- As a visual aid, upload an image/s to Tumblr that references your QCQ - the image/s should function as an additional response concerning your QCQ.

This is my piece.

I have made the peak of isolationism. My project is what i relate to most which is being self sufficient and alone. Not loneliness. But just needing to be alone. But also going mad with the mind and the self. I really tried emphasizing the passage of time as well.
