Other Concerns

At the moment I am taking advanced sculpture and I am trying to tie both advanced photography and sculpture together.  My initial ideas at the beginning of the quarter was to create and build unique sculptural framework for my thesis photography to be shown in at DAAPworks. I have been looking at lot at the work of Christian Boltanski.  The content of our work is very different, he reflects a lot on death, memory and loss, but I am really drawn to his work due to his use of mixed mediums.  He uses a mixture of photography, sculpture, projections, and found objects at times.  When working on my sculpture projects I am trying to emulate Boltanski through use of layers, opacity levels, mixed mediums, and play of light.

Here are some examples of some of my favorite work of Boltanski:
