4/4/2017 - Welcome to the Newly Refurbished Torture Chambers

       Today was the Crit for the 3rd Obstruction, and our surprise guest critics were ourselves. Two students presented at a time, while two others and Professor Carranza crited them. I was happy with my presentation, I feel I had a lot of things pinned up and that my collages were very convincing.
       Over the weekend, I worked on the collages. I had a large over all image of what my space would look like incorporated into the space. It was done on a 24" x 36" size sheet. I used the Piranesi as a background, laid out my collage onto, them had another Piranesi that I cut out what was in the foreground and laid that on tip, so it looked like my space was always there, and was at the right depth into the image.
       My second collage was the one were I used the perspective as a template. I had the foreground cut out like the last one, but I didn't attach it to this one. I just laid it on top, so it looked like the large one, until I presented. I then took off the the cover to reveal what my building would look like under the stairs and all the stuff in the foreground.
       My last and favorite collage in an interior perspective of what it would be like inside one of the torture spaces. This one was a risk, because I wasn't sure what it was going to look like or what I was going to use where. All I knew was that I wanted to do one. So I had a lot of images and I had a lot of things cut out and was placing them on the page here and there and just played around until I found things that just started to fit together. At the end it ended up becoming my favorite, I feel just looking at this one, it really gives the feel of the space. If I was told to only pin up one thing to express this whole project, I would choose this one.
