Color Takes Form

The concept of the piece is to place color that is desperately needed to the sterile space with an approach of using exaggerated forms of artist supplies. The objects exhibit the importance of color, shape, textures and forms with the use of the space and environment. The focus is to bring awareness to the importance of the Fine Arts Department and the role the Arts play in all aspects of our society. The objects create a lively feeling with the childlike implications, but display the significance of the grand scale that Art conveys to our world. The final result is to create a space that is inviting, comforting and symbolic.

These are fantastic! I had to work Monday but I'm so glad I got to see the pictures. I spoke to some people in my printmaking class that DID get to see them and they were impressed. I really like the playful, fun feeling. The scale must have been something to see.
I wish the school would follow your artist statement and do something with the courtyard space. Seems like with all the students we have that the courtyard could become another "display case" for weatherproof 3d work. Maybe an empty courtyard is supposed to be the place for the art that's locked in our heads?
