Masking Tape Shoes. Made entirely out of masking tape, using vans skate shoes and my own shoe as reference. They are 12 inches long and between 3 - 5 in. wide.
Balsa Wood Sculptures. The 3 materials that were used were generic plywood, wood glue, and horse hay. This piece represents are small part of my childhood that stuck with me forever. My father and I once a month would order a bunch of hay and lay in down our entire driveway. I'd have fond memories of rolling down it when we were done because it was possible. So here, the wood represents the act rolling, while the glue represents the bond my dad and I had, and they hay is actually the same hay we would have used. . 3 pieces of research: Joan Lurie: https://foundations3ddesign.blogspot.com/2017/03/joan-lurie-artist.html Martin Azua: https://foundations3ddesign.blogspot.com/2017/01/martin-azua-designer.html Jeremy Gilbert: https://foundati...
Fluxus Box. This piece was constructed up plywood, nails, black paint, clear plexiglass, a street sign, and misc. objects inside. Those include a burnt skateboard wheel wrapped in torn money, a dog in a bowl, a heart made of medical tape and a broken liquor bottle painted gold. Artist Statement. One of my favorite movies of all time is Lords of Dogtown. It's about how skateboarding started with a group of teens in a town called Dogtown in California. To represent this the best way I could, I decided to make the box a skateboard kicker, one that is actually skate-able. The clear plexiglass was to just show to viewer what's inside, without being able to touch it, a feeling that boys felt throughout the movie, almost being able to reach the goals. I knew right away the movie I wanted to do and I feel like I have made a good representation of what I was attempting to achieve.
