SKETCHUP MODEL IMAGES of second selected sketch section (Paused, Horizontal) with stairs




Sunday, March 23, 2008

Note: 'paused' (above) derived from Patricia Piccinini's artwork, thus designed for Piccinini
'horizontal' (below) derived from Sidney Nolan's artwork, thus designed for Sidney Nolan
Description of material selection:
I chose to have corrugated glass as the main element in 'paused' , the above ground studio space is surrounded by glass walls and a glass ceiling with a concrete floor suspended off the ground. I chose corrugated glass as opposed to normal glass to give a feeling of roughness and a ribbed texture that is not quite real just like Piccinini's artworks. The stairs are made of concrete blocks painted black, which extend over and form the gallery and are therefore a common space. the exhibition space at the ground level is curved and covered by the stairs and ceiling of the above ground space. Off the edge of the ground are stairs that lead off to the underground studio space. The stairs are arranged randomly, and each step component is made up of a 'j' shaped concrete block. The underground space would be made of a rock/granite material. The underground space like Sidney Nolan's artworks is made to feel very natural and is strongly based on horizontal components. The cave-like feel as opposed to something artificial would i think work well for Nolan.
