Decision To Remove The Ribcage Sculptural Elements Of Final Major

Image
I have decided to remove the ribcage sculptural element of my final major as I feel I may have been overly ambitious with creating both a spine and ribcage sculpture alongside an illustration piece for my final major piece. I do not feel that the quality of this piece is successful enough and I feel this may have been caused by insufficient experimentation on the structure of the ribcage and the overall armature within. As I have incorporated a lot of ribs within this sculpture, it was quite difficult to keep the form and scale of each rib symmetrical to balance the piece and once I had tested the ribcage alongside the spine sculpture as a temporary hold, I discovered that the piece as a whole was too busy and would distract the viewer's eye from the focal point of the illustration element of the final major. After applying a layer of mod roc to the ribcage, I felt that the structure had become too bulky and the original shape of the ribs were somewhat lost. Alongside this I felt t...

Proposal

The main influence for this project is my own Scoliosis surgery so I decided that bones (specifically the spine and ribcage) would be the main focus of my piece. I also drew inspiration from the works of Leonardo Da Vinci as I am very inspired by the intricacy of his anatomical studies and that his subjects are similar to that of which I would like to incorporate within my final major illustration and sculpture. Due to the quarantine, I am unable to conduct any trips or visits because of closures at this time. However I am influenced by previous trips and visits such as the Leonardo Da Vinci exhibition and the Natural History Museum in which I was able to study fossilised bones from life. The sculptural works of George Segal have inspired me in particular as they are presented within an environment, in which I would like to further research within this project.   The title of my project is “Orthopaedic Cage”. I will work towards producing a large scale spine and ribcage scu...

Time Management Evaluation

As I had created these time plans before the lockdown, I had based these plans around the fact that I would be able to work in the studio but I feel I have more or less stuck to this original plan anyway as I was quite vague and lenient with myself in case there was some kind of problem during the project in which this proved to be useful. I did however find it difficult to adjust to the lack of sketchbook work as opposed to the blog work in which I am not used to working in. I found that when taking photos to upload to the blog the images of pencil drawings especially would be quite difficult to see, so to solve this problem I had used a photo editor to adjust the contrast of the photos. However, I decided against using those photos as they lost some of the details and looked as if they had been manipulated which I did not want on the blog so I uploaded the originals. A slight change I did make within the time plan was to start the construction of the sculptural elements earl...
