Sculpture. First Project with Books


1. What content were you trying to address through your sculpture?
In this project I was trying to create a abstract tree like sculpture. It came out to be a very tall mountain shaped sculpture in the end. I think that since it was a history book of the different places in the world this books shows all the different places in the whole with the rolls of paper I made. It was hard at first to think of what I was trying to make out of this book. But I think that I was trying to address that there are so many places in the world that people can go to and there all over the place.

2. How effective were you in addressing this content? How, specifically, did you achieve this?
I think that I achieved this by showing that every little roll I made had a name of a body of water or a country on it. This way when you look at my sculpture you can see that every place is different and each and every little part that is made up of paper is not the same. 
3. What is most successful about your sculpture?
I think I was most successful with the way the parts of the sculpture climbs up the book it somewhat looks like it is dripping down the book with pieces of paper. I think that this look makes it very interesting and when people look at it i think that they will see that as well. 
4. What about your sculpture could be improved upon?
I think i could have made it more open with each piece I put on the sculpture. On my project I seemed to have every little rolled up paper on top of each other not leaving any space between the other ones. Making it more interesting then I did in the end.
