For our three dimensional project we have to create a sculptor piece that connects to the word ‘memory’. I started off with looking at artists Robert Therrien and Claus Oldenburg. I liked how the artists play with scale and size. I also started to look into the senses and how senses connect with memory. I especially want to focus on the sense of hearing and sounds. The first memory that came to mind was my dad making me draw an apple to practice shading when I was younger. I bought a apple and painted onto and then drew with a thichmarker to create a child-like drawing. However I had some extra paint and painted a page in my sketch. When I placed the apple on the page it made it look slightly 2D, which made me think of perspective and illusions. I’ve also decided that as the weeks go by the apple will rot, representing memory loss and how memories fade as you get older.
