i accomplished alot this weekend. i went to to home depot and bought supplies with my mom, and also took her dumpster diving, we picked up somethign really cool and i want to use it in this project but i'm not sure just yet. i also got some chicken wire to cover the structure and some other bits and pieces i thought we could use.
intially our idea was to construct something with a ladder climbing up to the unknown, sort of thing. our idea has evolved into creating a sort of control center with a control panel, and two pilot chairs and things or that nature. i feel like i can really be creative using this sort of idea because theres no limits to what i can make.
we still haven't figured out our different parts of the project yet but we will decide soon so that we can really get this project moving along. we had a late start because we really didn't know what we wanted to do and our thoughts were disorganized. now that we decided what we want to do it will be alot easier to figure everything out.
right now i'm collecting images and ideas that i want to recreate in our sculpture. i want to use los of maps and images to possibly paper mache over the structure to create a sort of collage look to the piece. last night i came to the studio to work on my project with alice and it was kind of a challenge because eerything was locked up for the night but we did the best we could with our circumstances. we hand sawed the lumber we had and nailed a frame together and installed part of it on the wall and talked some more about our ideas. i had hoped we'd get more done but i'm planning on coming in a lot this next week to work on it some more.
i just put up some pictures of stuff i liked and am going to try to use as a model...
