Pattern, Form, & Surface

Experimental Formmaking

Reimagine the Pencil

Material:
#2 pencils

Methods:
Slicing, marking, carving, shaving, stacking, stamping

Object as Form

Objective:
Interact with a chosen object to create 2D form. Manipulate, investigate, and make discoveries. Present findings in a 3x3 grid of photographs.

Material:
Clear plastic straws

Methods:
Scanning, grouping, crushing, freezing, cutting, melting, welding

Material Type

Objective:
Interact with the physical properties of materials to generate typographic form. Present findings in a 3x3 grid of photographs.

Material:
Metal wire

Methods:
Cutting, bending, twisting, wrapping, disrupting, extending

Pattern & Process

Objective:
Create pattern using many methods of experimentation. Choose one avenue to further develop into a 3D or time-based outcome.

Material:
Photographic fragments

Methods:
Layering, clipping, blurring, grouping, scaling, obscuring

Pattern and Process - Final Result

Objective:
Create pattern using many methods of experimentation. Choose one avenue to further develop into a 3D or time-based outcome.

Material:
Coffee filters

Methods:
Cutting, grouping, crushing, painting, stringing, stretching
