duality project

for this project we were tasked with creating one design that incorporated two related designs, like yin and yang, or the moon and the sun. I decided to combine skateboarding and snowboarding, since they are very similar. I created an A-frame rail which would be seen in a skatepark and not a park on a mountain, but i put a snowboarder on the rail grinding it, connecting them. to create the A-frame rail I used slabs for the base and coils for the rail part, and for the snowboarder i used a slab for the snowboard and coils for the person on the snowboard. after everything was fired i glazed it. i used grey glaze for the A-frame to simulate concrete, a metallic black for the rail, and a variety of different glazes for the snowboarder; black, green, orange, pink/light brown, and blue. this project presented a lot of challenges for me, as since the A-frame was all slabs and small coils, it dried out pretty fast. because of this, it broke twice before i finally created a finished project. however, i still think that the project came out well.
