MOVEMENT STUDY - INTERNET INSPIRATION

For personal future reference: here is a collection of movement images and diagrams which will assist in the production of oblique and other drawings incorporating movement and composition.

There images are not personal work, merely inspiration.

Two good websites with other examples:

Inspiration - Comic book illustrations that okay with the techniques of flipping scale, repetition, focal point/hierarchy, emotion, action, exaggeration and zoom ins.

Moss as a client

Client: Moss

The visual of having surfaces covered in moss is quite appealing

Task 2A: SPECULATE - Photomontages that depict the intention of redesigning Victoria Dock into a space that captures the possibilities of interactions between humans and non-humans.

06. Manifesto: Victoria Dock Manifesto.

[shaunlim]

05. Photomontage: Proposal for the redesign of Victoria Dock, the design of the protective cast has to respond critically towards its interaction with predators such as the kelp gull. The design has to also respond to the other nonhumans associated with mussel colonies, such as moss. The proposal aims to create a shared space between humans and non-humans within the site.

what is a PROPOSITION?

REMEMBER when preparing your verbal presentation for midsemester reviews, that you should make reference to the overall studio stream in Year 2 –> that is, CRITICAL OBSERVATIONS & PROPOSITIONS. 

But what is a proposition? Here is a simple guide to this term. It is a starting point only….you should research further so that you construct a persuasive narrative for your verbal delivery of this design proposal. 

A statement is a sentence which can be true or false. 

A proposition is a statement that the author is proposing for further scrutiny, possibly as a proof of argument. 

A claim is a proposition that the author claims is true.

Casting Process: Mould broke and spilled plaster while casting! :(  Thankfully the remaining plaster was still of sufficient thickness. (5cm thick) Looking forward to attach the acrylic and boxboard, fingers crossed...

Cast Material Prototype: Metal

Metal bends and contours around the shell of the mussel well. It is also a durable material that do not degrade easily in seawater. A metal cast is also tough, it offers substantial physical protection against predators and water impact.
