Orchids, Dandelions, and You

Here is some new work that I worked in with my engineering Group for art and Engineering.  My group consisted of 3 engineers (Jon Durst the fearless leader, Tori Dahlen design coordinator, and Ben Pearson our Code writer)  This was an amazing experience.  I really enjoyed work with them and hopefully we can continue to work together.  This Project is a combination of all of our ideas and this is based on the Orchid theory.  This is the last post for a little time I will be traveling and I am not sure about the access to internet.  I will try to post but will not guarantee it.  I hope you enjoy.

A Pillar Sample

The idea behind this work is the evolution of the vessel.  The pillar representing the foundation of the vessel and the Sample representing a core sample of a time line.   The bottom layer of the core sample is raw clay, the next layer is pieces of pottery and the common use of clay as the vessel, and we have the final layer of mass produced one time use styrofoam vessels.  The fallen pillar/core sample is a representation of old technologies being displayed as a ruin like some pillars in Italy, Greece, ect...  The colorants are different molds and gases breaking down the previous buried materials.
