12/13/23 - Food For Thought Slides/ Mid-Semester PBL
This final CHEMVAS project is part of my mid-semester PBL project: Food For Thought. Naturally, every class was involved and gave an assignment to do with the project. Here is part of the PBL project connected to my CHEMVAS class. My group and I were tasked with creating pottery/ceramic table set that represented the Columbian Exchange and ancient pottery design. With the slides you see to the left, you can look through my personal process with this project.

5/1/2024 - Solar Balloon Mini-Project (CHEMVAS)
With this project, we first listened to a TED talk spearheaded by Tomas Saraceno. Tomas is the artist/architect responsible for the idea of Cloud Cities, in which entire cities are built on the science behind air, solar energy, and balloon like material/structures. The idea is backed up by Charles's Gas Law; stating that a fixed amount of gas is directly related to temperature. The hotter the gas, the more it expands, and the more dense- and as we all know, heat rises.
10/2/23 - "It's Elementary"
This was a joint project between my Chemistry and Art class. We used what we learned in both classes to create a scene and documentation of the project. From chemistry, we chose one element from the Periodic Table and was instructed to research every detail about it and its atom. Then, with art, we were told to use things like "linear perspective" and "atmospheric perspective" to create a scene that involves our atom/element. In the slides provided you can see my project. Enjoy!
We were tasked with creating the word "Chemvas" out of digital images of materials used in chemistry and art! First, we had to make an exciting background of out digital brushes, then we had to select images from Google that we could use to make the word. In the picture of my work, you can see I used a protractor for the "C," three Bunsen-burners for the "H," a digitally-modified hotplate for the "E," four graduated cylinders for the "M," two crayons for the "V," a digitally-modified paint palette for the "A," and the periodic table symbol for Sulfur as the "S."
