Street Modification

This is a piece I did last semester. I simply drilled a circuit breaker to a tree. I placed an LED light string in the box that gave the illusion that there was some sort of function. I replaced the lights after they burnt out once and then after that quickly lost interest. The box (shown above in the winter) lasted quite some time without lights. Just the other day I had noticed it was removed. In retaliation I took apart a typewriter and screwed a piece of it where the box had once been. This new modification stands out even more so I am curious as to how long it will last.

This piece was originally based of one of my favorite grindcore songs so I entitled it:
Innocent Bystanders Watched in Horror as Peter Jennings Drew his Murder Weapon.

Shoes

This was my 3-D Final second semester last year. The assignment was to make a shoe. I took apart my Nike All Courts, made patterns, and saved the soles. I used a second hand shop leather coat and a Burberry scarf for the exterior of the shoe. The interior is acrylic fur. I spray painted the soles gold, added some gold eyelets, reassembled the shoe and that was that. I've worn them once or twice but now they are shelved.

New Pic

Here is a shot of my old installation changing with the seasons.

update

Updated intensely today. I am going to get some higher quality images for a few of the projects from friends and re-shoots.

Bronze Piece

This is my first experience with bronze casting. I used the lost wax technique. The three forms are separate and must be delicately balanced to stand. This was my first shot at patina work on bronze as well. I'm a big fan of cupric nitrate. About forty coats of that gave me that classic sea foam green. The bottom hole originally had a little creature but the wax shattered in the early stages. Now I use it as a pencil holder.
