Final Project
My self Portrait reflects both my fascination of several cultural influences, and the ideals of struggle and freedom. Designed with the swirl of the greek key symbolizing harmony, the colors of the yin and yang represent the contrasting colors and the continuous elevation of the staircase projecting hierarchy. Although creating this piece was fun, I was always challenge with calculating the dimensions of the rise, and run of the staircase, the glue gun malfunction along with the painting process. For this specific design, I was deeply inspired by Sol Lewitt artwork, form the color scheme, the stair artwork to the harmony portrayed within his work. Initially I imagined something different but in the end I designed something more priceless.
