Week 6: Design Draft
Making Abstract Sculpture
Design Draft 1
Describe your intentions and process plan.
WHAT am I making: Two major blocks stacked on top of each other with smaller protruding shapes
HOW do I plan to do this: Tying the individual shapes together with wire
WHY (intention): It is pretty balanced and creates a unique structure
Week 7 to 10: Process Photos of Wire Sculpting
From 2D to 3D

Artist Statement: 50 words
Im trying to present the idea for the structure of a building. My inspiration is ocean waves and i decided to present it as such with a smaller item on top to look like something floating on water. I used techniques like tying the structures together with thin wire and weaving to make it more sturdy. overall, I am happy with the end result and have learnt how to be resilient in the face of struggles

Peer Feedback
Use of Positive Language to Nurture and Empower
ONE PRAISE: 30 WORDS
They have made a unique structural design and it is able to balance really well. They are also able to let the structure have texture by simply adding the weaving
Highlight the positive words used.
ONE POLISH: 30 WORDS
They could maybe organise the different shapes more neatly as it is a bit messy but it has its own uniqueness. The structure could also be straighter and more upright.
Describe the value-addedness to the impact of your peer's work based on your suggestion.
