Project 2:
For your final project,
create a compound shape. Then cut that shape apart and re-work it (by soldering
it together in a different order, by making each bit a separate piece, by
forging the pieces individually, etc.) to create a new piece(s). The new piece must have one movable connection.
Consider the surfaces of the
piece- different surface treatments, metals, textures, patinas, etc. Think
about what you want the final piece to be- object, wearable- and technical
considerations that apply- connections, display base, clasp, etc.
Due next class:
5-10 Sketches of the compound
shape and alterations. Scale maquette of your favorite. Create a rough outline of steps of
fabrication from original shape through final form(s).
Final piece due beginning
of class December 12.
