Project 2

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.
