Elsewhere Project



Elsewhere is a place located in close proximity of downtown Greensboro, NC. It is a quite interesting place to visit, but your first visit would be so over whelming, because of all the object and figure rings that have been accumulated there over the years. "Can you say PACK RAT" yes this place would be a great example of what a pack rat can accumulate. This place was started in the early 90's and over the years things were accumulated; it is a great joy to see all the toys that you once may have had as a child. Many objects brought back great memories.
The only negative about this place is the disorderedness, the owners or the members of this organization try different ways to organize the mess but there isn't but so many places or ways to store the mass amount of objects. As a class we went to visit different areas throughout the building, and later we had to pick five object and draw them. The image of the have and the California raisin are two of the five objects that i chose to draw. Later in the project we were to mark out a space on the floor and draw with in those boundaries. My space was filled with suite cases in the beginning and things seemed to have been added every day after when I would return. I started off drawings little piece of my space, then somewhat a full view. Once again it is just impossible to draw every single detailed item, because it is too overwhelming.

Pat's Chair



You may have viewed on my blog in the past the plans of my project Pat's Chair here are some images of the Chair that designed.

Client Final Project





In this project we were assigned certain artist, and had to design a habitable wall space for them. My client was Nneena Freelon, a jazz performer. After doing research about her through her website I got the feel of elegance and a free flowing woman. Due to that my model was based on free flowing curves just her music and my comprehension of her personality. After the individual area of this project we were to combine with other people and their clients, and place the on the thrd floor of the gate wood studio arts building in the best way we saw fit.
