FINAL PRESENTATION
Frontal (on flat surface)
Title of Work: The Stock Market
Year: 2024
Medium: Metal Wire
Dimensions: The third dimension
Artist Statement: > 50 words
The cube base represents the platform on which the stock market is. its a platform where everyone can come. The spikes at the corner of the base represent the potential dangers that the wrong choice can make on your wallet,
And there are five of them, which means an unfortunate or fast-moving change, meaning the stock market changes unpredictably and quickly.
The tower on the right symbolizes the big corporations that you invest in by way of their office towers. The ball on the top represents wealth and prosperity, and the fact that it is at the tip means it is hard to reach and very far away from regular people on the ground. It is tipping and going to fall from the top only connected and tied by two points, symbolizing the risks of the stock market and the fortunes to be made.

Peer Feedback
Use of Positive Language to Nurture and Empower
ONE PRAISE: 30 WORDS
I find that the way that you connect the sphere to the ball is very creative, and I find that the shape of the sculpture is very extraordinary which is pretty cool.
Highlight the positive words used.
ONE POLISH: 30 WORDS
I find that more twinning around the pyramids and the entire cuboid at the bottom should be done as without that twinning it looks a little incomplete.
Describe the value-addedness to the impact of your peer's work based on your suggestion.
Team Review by Individuals
Name 1: Kenji
What I have done
Ideation: I thought of putting different beautiful geometric shapes but not in traditional ways some different ways like hanging off and binding. The shape is very beautiful and handmade which gives it a good
Implementation:
I created the shapes beautifully and used hanging to hang the ball off the side of the cuboid and make it very cool
Reflection (30 words)
I Used to Think:
Art is just drawing and and stuff on paper and canvass
...but Now i Think:
3D art exsists in form of sculpture and stuff like statue and even buildings are art

Mentor's Feedback (to be completed by your teacher)
PRAISE:
I like the stability of your sculpture and your intention, vivid placement and juxtapositions of the three basic units - cuboid, sphere and pyramid.
POLISH:
Some organic lines and flow thrown in either via form or in weaving patterns will give interesting movement to your sculpture.
