Blog 4: Curatorial





Aluminum, the third most abundant element, the most abundant metal, used in architectural context like planes, some of our cars. Used and perceived a strong metal, an architectural strength, reduced to nothing  but , a spiraling imitation of draining liquid though spiral forms, a liquefied element.
 "Growth is a spiral process, doubling back on itself, reassessing and regrouping." - Julia Margaret Cameron

Eddying spirals create fluid formality as a vortex of monochromatic aluminum gracefully flow throughout the object, surrounding , almost dominating but a sole strip of darkened wielding wire, which binds the spiraling vortex from falling asunder. "Growth is a spiral process, doubling back on itself, reassessing and regrouping." This emphasizes, the coil as it begins as one a singular entity, only  to stray from one another, not touching but simply hovering throughout while ignoring a simple wire which strives to match in shape and form, existing only to reassess and tame the unbound.

 
Fluid, the liquified Element
Weave
Fluidity is fabricated though spiraling curves. President image "The Liquefied Element"  was a  strong influence in the overall production of the model, the idea of turning fluidity into an element, line and curve constantly spiraling though out each other but never making contact, it's almost metallic, shiny surface encouraged me to use metal type materials, to capture light within the model


 "weave" influenced line. A line that gracefully passes though curvilinear forms changing path were it would otherwise touch and cause conflict between the two, the idea of an intellectual line, an intelligent form, awareness.
