48) Ribbon tile, gallery, rustic home

Decoration of Interiors. Other projects. 2010

Mixed Media.

I will show you some other smaller project we made here in Toulouse before our final one:

Ribbon tile

The purpose of this project was to design a ribbon tile for a bathroom or kitchen using any kind of materials. and this is what i came up with.

My grandma and mom have a small jewelry business with african and south american beads, and those beads have been a tremendous help for my models, as you can see in this ribbon tile design.

Gallery:

This was one of our color assignments and we had to play with color combinations, shapes and sizes to design a nice gallery.

I was inspired by a German bank that i saw when i went to Munich to visit. It had two different color lights in the shape of lines that went from the floors to the walls to the ceilings, and i thought it would be so cool for a gallery to interact the art with the viewers.

Rustic Home

I was assigned to create a 2D model of a rustic interior (Living room and entrance). I chose every furniture, every color, every texture and all the lightings in the interior, including as well every piece of ornament. I added small numbers to the plan to link them to the information board underneath.

38) Lamp Assemblage (From Peru to Canada)

When i was back in Vancouver after summer, i took two more visual art courses, Intermediate painting and basic sculpting. I had never taken any sculpting class before and i thought it would be amazing to learn something new.

I loved that class so much because not only we were always working in the university's workshop, where they had pretty much everything and we could do whatever we wanted, with the supervision of the workshop technician of course, but i leant so much about different materials and how to work with them like metals and plastics, and i'm pretty sure i would be able to do cool things with them now if i had the necessary equipment of course.

Sculpture. Lamp assemblage. 2009

Mixed media.

This sculpture was based on an assemblage projects, where we had to create a sculpture assembling two different objects.

I found the base of the lamp on the streets and i thought it would be excellent to make something out of it... at the same time, without even thinking of a possible idea of a lamp, i went to a flee market and i bought a basket thinking that i could also do something with it because it was extremely cheap.

When i took everything home i realized that i could use the basket as a shade of a lamp and so i took apart all the pieces of another lamp i had at home and added the bulb and the wires into the new lamp. Also, i had to create the middle part of my lamp so that the shade would be a little elevated and not so close to the base.

Making that wasn't as easy as it looks, it took a lot of time because i had to prepare the inside well so that the bulb would fit perfectly and so that the cable wouldn't be too visible.
