3D Blog Assignment Due 27th

Blog assignment due Sept 27 - research 3D artists using sites like http://illusion.scene360.com/ or any other site you would like to use.  Choose one of the artists and write about what you like about the work. Post some photos of their work.

         After looking around on this website, I’m being inspired by a lot of the works in there. But because that this is a 3D assignment, I’ve chosen “sculptural graffiti” that has caught my eyes. There’s even a video to it, so I looked further into this, and it is very different when you looking at the sculptural graffiti in photos and you are actually next to the art. The artist who did the work mostly used paper to create the artwork and used sticks to make the artwork stay standing. I don’t think that this is just a piece of 3D art work that it is just there. This is a temporary artwork that wouldn’t be there forever, it’s probably being removed very soon after it was created. Because that what if the street cleaning lady comes and recycle them, or it start raining and the art work’s ruined? So I think photography and video does a good job of recording the whole thing down. But I think what this sculptural graffiti work touched me was that, the artwork and the city actually combines and melt into one, just like the graffiti too, but the 3D graffiti stand out more, it’s more unusual and creating this “I’m alive” feeling to it.

3d material paragraph homework

I remember in grade 10, I had a geography project, which is create a volcano model, which we could use any form of material. I went to the supermarket and asked them if they have got some transparent wrapping bags, I gathered them and I was going to make an transparent volcano which you can see through the layers inside, such as rock, paint etc. It did not happen, because that I thought it was too hard to accomplish and the used plastic bags are not clear enough, also I couldn’t figure out how to let the paint stay and where I wanted it to be at, so I changed my idea. This idea assignment really reminds me of the unfinished project that I had which I never handed in, therefore I would like to use the same idea, which I thought it was pretty unique, but just not about the volcano though, probably something else that is related to my current pieces art work. I think that I would look for better material instead of the used ones, and figure out how can I paint onto the plastic bags, since that I didn’t have acrylic paint back at that time.
