Unity: Compare & Contrast

As I looked around the critique room today, many of the projects captured my eye. I saw a lot of unity and a lot of different ideas and techniques. One that I found that stood out to me was Kalani’s. It reminded me of the Shell that I have previously learned about in Patrick’s class.

It is obvious that Kalani’s and mine differed in appearance in the fact that his was more rounded and curved. Mine on the other hand is more straight and direct. It has flat planes instead of curved ones. They also differ because my skewers are very parallel. Kalani’s skewer’s are a little more tilted and do not exactly lay parallel to the one another.

In comparison, there are spaces made within both of our projects. In Kalani’s project, there are definite spaces that are formed between the sheets of Bristol board, as well as with mine. Patterns are achieved by this, but also with the use of the sticks. I believe that both of our projects show a lot of care and precision. They appear that each skewer and each sheet of Bristol board were positioned according to their perfect place within the project. The sizes and how much space is revealed was also a concept that appears to had been carefully thought about.
