Show and Tell #5



Here's something a little different for today's Show and Tell.
Lee M. has finished up her term for the Foundation Visual Arts program at NBCCD, New Brunswick College of Craft and Design and reports that her sewing room is now cleaned up after a 3D construction project. "The objective was to design a piece that had unity and variety, with special attention to texture, rhythm and emphasis. Materials allowed were cardboard, craft paper and glue.






As social distancing morphed into "stay home," my design also morphed into a little imaginary village where walls are carved with a repeating motif, roofs are corrugated and plants are pleasantly genetically modified into odd shapes.










Above, sitting at the highest point there is the focal point, an origami crane, which the Japanese believe is a symbol of hope and healing during challenging times, looking out for the village inhabitants.











What an interesting project Lee!
A very different style of village!
Such creativity, thinking out of the box.. cardboard box, that is..
