Various objects and materials such as Forks, Knives Spoons, Plates, and cups.
Inspired by the movie: Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (2001)

Artist Statement: I choose the theme of my work from Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. 
I decided to go with the great hall where everyone eats meals. I wanted to convey the feeling that
there are more people there, as well as I also showed the colors of the houses.
I wanted it to be very formal because I believe the great hall is a very formal place to eat.

Figurative Sculpture Assignment

 

Pic of Both

Sculpture #1: SemperFi Memorial
Sculpture #2: Unseen Side of PTSD
AirDryed Clay, Wood, Paint, Fabric
Sculpture #1: 7 x 15 x 6 
Sculpture #2: 6.5 x 6.5 x 7.5
Artist Statement: For both Sculptures, I wanted to give honor to my Grandpas as well as the military. The first sculpture focuses on PTSD and how it's a hidden disorder. The second sculpture was focusing on the memory of the 13 military members who lost their lives to a suicide bomber in Kabul. It is shown in the first sculpture by half the face being darker than the other side with a hole in that side of the head. The second sculpture was my own version of a military memorial.

Research:
This is a memorial for the military members called Boots Rifle Helmet
This is the Branch my Grandfather on my mom's side was in.
This is the branch that my Grandfather on my dad's side was in.

Gregor's Room Assignment

Gregor's Room Assignment



The Darkness of Gregor's Humanity
Response to Franz Kafka's short story The Metamorphosis.
White copy paper and ink. No adhesive
All pieces arranged to take up approx. 10 x 7 x 4

Explanation: The darker part of the story showed me different colors and showed how lonely Gregor was.

Detailed Pictures


Student Statement: I started my piece wanting to model it after the loneliness during the story. This meant that everything would have darker colors. I thought it would be interesting to show how I thought the bed was. I decided to symbolize Gregor with a baby since babies are born usually alone. I imaged the piece to be bitter or fragile which is why it looks so torn up.
