Pink Foam Models




These are (grayscale) pictures of my pink-foam models for the Opposite Forms assignment. The top one is Sacred and Secular, which I simplified a bit from my original marker rendering, and the bottom one is Open and Closed. For that one I modified my original design so that the pair appears to be two states of the same object, which seems to make the contrast between open and closed much more obvious. During the class critique, there was some concern that the form I chose was not "essential" - that it had extra edges and details that made it into a "product" instead of just a fundamental form. But overall I think the opinion was that it was so nice-looking and clear that it didn't matter so much if it wasn't the most essential form.
