Let's start with orientation module.
We started with a poem, translating it in a drawing and then installing it in a structure.
The poem is as follows:
THERE WAS AN OLD MAN OF MERSEILLES
There was an old man of Merseilles,
Whose daughter wore bottle-green veils;
They caught several fish,
Which they put in a dish,
And sent to their Pa at Marseilles.
Installation:
Using only Bamboo and strings made this process challenging and interesting.
Next is the Freehand drawing module
Here we visited the nearby village to capture the life and movement there by staying on site and trying to portray it in our sketches. This was my first time doing live sketches and was a very new experience.
In this section you will see the study sketches which were put together to make the massive A1 drawing.
My drawing is about the ice golawalla who comes in the burning heat as a sign a relief and joy to the kids. I tried to study his stall from different angles and studied every little detail on the stall and drew it. Considering every angle and how the cart would look from each of them, I started doing the study sketches so it would help me compose the bigger one.
Please take a look at all these sketches.
THE FINAL SKETCH
This the final sketch which was made at the end of the module after weeks of studying the gola stall and taking in the all the details.
From all the colorful bottles which excites us to the machinery required to make it, the sticks and spoons, the plastic bottles and paper cups, the massive ice cube to its broken fragments, the chisel and knife, the completely filled cups and the empty cups waiting to be filled, every little detail that takes you to the place has been placed in the sketch.
These are the study sketches which were used as references to make the larger drawing. All of them were drawn from different angles to give a better sense of details that were present on the stall and how they looked when seen from these angles.
Toilet in Thane or The Lightbox in Thane was the project we drafted and made a model on the scale of 1:50 while using the required materials of different textures and trying to incorporate all the details.
We made grid on apple and tried understanding the form of elbow in such a way that when evolved in helps the elbow in a certain activity. Our exercise was the plank position.
To ease the position of holding the plank we have flattened the elbow and elongated it, the forearm has also been flattened and to avoid obstruction in the function of the elbow we constructed the curvature providing the function a smooth flow.
The ratio between the thickness and the thinness of the forearm is 1:2 and the ratio between the thickness and the thinness of the upper arm is 2:3.
We have used quadrilateral and triangles to build the model.
In this exercise we made prosthetics that defined our relationship with animals. Me and my partner Mitalee made a prosthetic that showcased our relationship with guinea pig.
Guinea pig likes to stay close to the body and likes a comfortable, soft and cosy place so we made a resting place along the waist connected with tunnel like structures throughout the torso which provides the guinea pig place to move and play while being in its comfort zone. We used foam and sculpted it to create bulges and to give the foam tunnel like structures.
