Kayla Henne - Sculptures

1st Sculpture

When making this piece I really focused on making it playful and fun since my medium was so childish. When putting the whole thing together I wanted to create an interactive piece since I had made crayons. The objects I created was a crayon carrot and crayon piece of celery. I wanted the piece to bring up old memories of laying on the ground and coloring. With vegetables being a huge thing that kids don't like it was humorous to have the crayons be vegetables.

2nd Sculpture

"Dinglehopper"

19th Century Denmark

Donated by King Eric

After his beloved wife's passing, Eric felt her collection of gizmos and gadgets should be donated to The Denmark Museum of Treasures.

 

3rd Sculpture

For the pedestal project I wanted to comment on how some parts of society put certain woman on this very feminine pedestal and talk about how they are just too nice or too innocent to be touched. I decided to make the pedestal very light weight to show how unstable that idea even is. I decided to use the color white because that color tends to represent innocence. I added the flowers to make it even more feminine. I feel like I achieved the feminine aspect of the piece, but I wasn't thrilled about the piece looking like a wedding cake.
