In this sculpture i started off by painting a can and wood, and adding things like wire, much like most of my other sculptures. But as I was setting it up, I was very fascinated with the shadows the wire was casting on the wall. That is why I photographed it the way it is set up. 







This sculpture that I made I was exploring the use of only one material. The material was paper. I also incorporated paint into it like I have for all my sculptures so far. 





In my second sculpture for this semester, I have created a light free form wire based sculpture. I was still pulling inspiration from Richard Tuttle's work. I was inspired by his work with wire and shadows. I again tried to use materials that would reflect a gentle nature. These materials include a wood block in the shape of a triangle, wire, and white tulle on the top. 





The sculpture I have created above is based off Richard Tuttle's work. After viewing much of his work, I felt like I needed to create something that was simple, but had deeper meaning. I was very inspired by the desert mountain landscape surrounding Tuttle's house and set out to create a minimalist scene about it. I wanted to use some materials that I had on hand for a while, that I was sitting on, waiting for the right project to come about. I felt like that was something Tuttle would do. After seeing some of his works, I knew that I would layer pieces on top of each other to create depth. I tried to use materials that were gentle and subtle, like soft pencil lines, white mesh, and of course wire. I contrasted these delicate materials by placing them on plywood to create a push and pull of solid forms and light ones. I placed the piece on a white wall, about eye level, where the spot lights could hit it and create some shadows.
