Throughout this journey, I attended 3D/Spatial Design, Fashion/Textiles and a week of Visual Communication rotations. Unfortunately, I missed the Fine Art and some Visual Communication rotations because I had a problem with my UK Visa. Luckily my interests are not so much focussed on the after rotations I had missed. The 3D/Spatial Design project was extremely successful and well documented because I already had experience in this area during the last two years, hence I found the project quite easy to get under way.
At the beginning of the 3D/Spatial Design project, I tried to consolidate its foundation, such as the first and second hand researches, and research about artists. I enjoyed observing my installations and primary source of buildings in which I spent a short amount of time to draw the object by using continuous line, left hand, right hand, eyes closed, overlapping etc. For my experiments, I decided to create three dimensional structures by folding the ones which could link to my researches. In comparison, the Fashion/Textiles was similar to 3D/Spatial Design, for example, create three dimensional forms which had to have a connection between observational studies and first hand researches, and using the human figure to demonstrate its scale. I enjoyed doing Fashion/Textiles rotation since it was more like textiles rather than fashion; the constructed textiles discipline offers the opportunity for the practitioner to explore structure through cloth. Textile production can involve intense working and reworking of materials to create layered, complex pieces for me. However, I am not exceedingly interested in Fashion and Textiles because I had previously investigated it during the last four years and I found it is not for me.
I endeavoured to explore folding it together with the features in my drawing styles by creating three dimensional structures within a various range of materials, for example, reflective materiality card, balsa wood, colour papers, cards, strings, red acetates, brown tapes etc, to develop the initial ideas into three dimensional structures. The use of reflective materiality card and matt (balsa wood) made an excellent contrast.
Consequently, I am looking forward to specialising in 3D/ Spatial Design in my BA course which I already decided to specialise in before entering the Foundation Diploma through my A Levels. I have been studying architecture for my personal assignment of Fine Art, especially modernism. The assignment has been influenced by O.Frank Gehry’s De-constructive Architecture style. I found it is relevant to the 3D/Spatial Design rotation. In the final analysis of my 3D work, I successfully created spatial models with small figures employing the ‘Modular Structures’ which was more challenging than I expected. My investigations and final outcomes have a strong link to my quick drawing. I aimed to use the form primarily to determine the building materiality and shape, which are the main considerations. I was extremely pleased to study this rotation and have expanded my knowledge and understanding.
In the final analysis, this was a fascinating time for me as this is where I learnt how to draw skilfully – which was very influential for me in learning to love and have a passion for art. I was able to mathematically measure and use plenty of linear work throughout my works. Any form of Art is essential to my life as it is my greatest passion and extremely important to my future career. My main inspiration and influence for choosing to specialise in 3D/Spatial Design over the years is my father, who is a developer that does business in Korea which is relevant to architecture. My place of residence in Korea is also one of his works.
