Critique Day for Our Art Installations

It was critique day for our art installations. Here are the great pieces that my class came up with.





This is my completed piece! It is a sandbox with a ceramic tile hop-scotch, plaster-molded butterflies, origami cranes, and lots of outdoor games. 

If you notice in the background, there is someone actually playing with the sandbox. To me, that means that my piece was a success!



This is Jasmine's installation. It is a beautiful installation piece. It is almost like a ceramic stained-glass window. Each ceramic piece is under-glazed and fired multiple times to get the gradient effect. All of the small ceramic pieces come together to form this beautiful piece.

This is Jasmine with her amazing installation.




Here is Kelso and Jasmine starting the hike to look at Kelso's installation piece.

Kelso plaster molded several rocks from his favorite hike. He then replaced the original rock with its plaster-molded replica. You can see the plaster-molded rock in white.

This is the class taking a minute to look at one of Kelso's rocks.



This is Patrick's monster. It is actually a political statement... perhaps you should try and figure it out yourself.

Again, the class admiring our peer's work. That is Patrick in the red, flannel shirt. 




This is Jamie's installation piece.





This is Tracy explaining his piece. These are all bricks that he made and displayed in front of this store.









Setting Up My First Art Installation

Here is the setting up of my first art installation. I had lots of help from my friends to set it up. There is a built sand box with toys and a hop-scotch made up of ceramic tiles. Each of the tiles has some sort of childhood story or nursery rhyme on it. There are also casted butterflies and origami cranes hanging from the bar-roof. The best part is that people came up and started "playing" with my installation. Success!

The start of the set-up... Hanging up the cast butterflies





The sandbox with the hop-scotch tiles. Now all it needs is toys


The butterflies are all up!

Time for the cranes

The finished product. Isn't it awesome?!?

Mixed Media Mirror

This is a mixed media piece that I made with ceramics, screen printing, and a mirror. The cute little girl is my niece.

Daily Change Project

Here is a mixed media piece that I turned into a small film. I took a broken mug, and then changed it every day. In the end, I burned it on film. Isn't that what we all do with art pieces??
