4(1)- Cutting, opening and shutting

Tactic:

Cut up thin piece of paper to get a line. When you pull the line, it can go through the original drawing to create space. So that the solid is moved away and let light come through.

Aim:
Create the column head as top of the leg of table, and create the table top as coat. In the coat there’s glasses case. When you open it, there’s a telescope and they are all made of paper, unfolded for looking through the system. They are all things from different points in time.

Drawings:

A (the first two)
Comment:
It is delicate and talks about transparency, light, geometry and cutting, the flow and movement of surface, colour and depth. The background should be subtle.
B(the last one)
Comment:Hard modeling and rigid, random and become just a thing.

A pigeon fancier has just raced his pigeons, from the drawing room to a pigeon house. The image of drawing room is unreal; it’s a mirage of a distance space. And the people in drawing room are racing funs with unforeseeable changes.

In Alexander Pope’s account of Stanton Harcourt manor house, there was a pigeon house that in his imagination a drawing room.
The drawing discusses the connection between actual and virtual world. That the actual world sometimes violently breaks the virtual imagination, the link/barrier between them is weak and fragile.
