Working Title

And storyboards for 101. On the second image, there are two different endings. The one on the left was not working, something about it didn’t gel. Handing over powers when you use them wasn’t working. the right hand side holds more promise although it could be slightly less cheesy :)

In process photos for 111 P3. Sorry about the craft, sketch models :)

The first one is fairly simple and just demonstrates the hinge action of the elbow.

The second one has the upright end cube rotating around the back face of the lower cube. I liked that when it is upright you could almost expect it to hinge but it rotates.

The third one has a couple of concepts within it that I am going to explore further. The two cubes spin relative to each other on the short side, something that I am thinking about incorporating into a different design. The other is the hinge action and the rotation on that same face.

I would like to do something with both a hinge action and a rotational element…let us see.

Wings

Movement and interactive relationship with the body has been the most important element throughout my body of work. However through these works, I also started to explore the mechanical structure as a form. Mechanical structure becomes the most enjoyable form to me as it becomes complex yet remains simple and coherent. The contrast between metal structural form and natural feather, together with the repetitive and whimsical movements of fragile wings, provokes the imagination and evolves the intimate relationship between work and viewer/wearer. Although the recent series, segmented wings have been focused on the formal challenge to engineer an intricate movement that simulates bird wings, these works are intended to be a series of poems in which I develope my own formal language, interpret the nature of wings, create various structural forms with movements, and share the metaphor, imagination, humor, with viewer/wearer.

Just a video I came across a while back.

thought it was appropriate for 101.
