Consenses

Set the basil on fire.

Clay Making

        
        After making a paper light sculpture for my latest project, I was inspired by Korean artist Jin Young Lu and her transparent sculptures with expressive masks. The main theme of this piece will be the underestimation of potential aptitude. I will make a pair of wings coming out of a human figure curling himself up to show the vulnerability and fear of the figure. The wings will be made by Kato Polyclay Translucent to indicate the potential flying ability of the human figure which he does not realise it.

       The figure needs a skeleton before putting clay on it, so learning about anatomy and structure of bones are necessary. An instagrammer, edizkan, makes tons of tutorial video and drawings on creating a human figure from different angels and gestures. I have created my figure in the ratio and shape I expected to be, and beard the same idea on creating the structure of the pair of wings. The preparation of this project is huge but also really important which one wrong step may cost the whole piece to be a failure. By watching Michael Zajkov, a sculptor's doll-making video, I have a good sense of several details to caution while making my figure.

Sense of FAshion

Brief

    What was the popular trend back in 970BCE that is different from today? Was it a pair of high heels from Christian Louboutin or a leather jacket from Saint Laurent Paris? The sense of fashion has been changed over time for sure; however, would people from that period of time accept the concept of fashion in modern society, or would they consider people from today as weirdos? I guess the answer  is a "No"; not many people can appreciate the future fashion. If someone from our era is wearing clothes that are not acceptable right now, but he might lead a new trend of fashion after one or two decades, can we say that "he is the weirdo or he is ahead of us?" So the claim I'm trying to make here is: DO NOT let surrounding people to judge the thing you consider to be yourself. It can be the way you      dress, the way you talk, and most importantly, the way you live.
