Well a lot of time has gone by, and I definitely have an idea of what I want to do. I was debating and debating about my decision to do a portfolio about chinquapin or a sculpture. I really wanted to raise money for the school, but I also really wanted to do something with art. I talked to one of my senior seminar instructors, Susan, and she mentioned how it seems that I am trying to mix these two ideas. So I decided to do a sculpture. In the Chinquapin campus, we have a sculpture of a yellow tree with a red student reading a book. --------->
Every time I see this sculpture, it makes me think of Chinquapin. I want to make a sculpture that will make others see it and think of Chinquapin as well. I'm thinking of having this sculpture in the sculpture garden we have at school, where ironically there are no sculptures. This is the zarasua project work in process.
Wow!
ReplyDeleteI didn't know you were planning on making a sculpture. You must really have your mind set on this project since I know you're avid at Art. I recall a certain math teacher of ours who made a sculpture once with a friend[DH]and it came out looking very vivid, alive. Maybe you should contact him, ask him about his experience so you have a better idea what you're getting into.
I also reccomend you look into the Project Road Houses near UH. The people there are very nice, most are either artists or poets. Anyways, I think if you ask; they'll even let you look at their artwork.
Last thing: What will represent Chinquapin? Think of something we all have in common. Maybe then you'll find your muse.
Project Rowe House, I think, is what Lore means here.
