In this Advanced Digital Workshop, 4th semester DISA students began developing more personal work. These images were extracted from longer film projects using 3D Modeling techniques.
The following images are from an assignment given in the Drawing Option class. Loosely based on the format of an exquisite corpse, students were asked to do a self-portrait in three segments. The top segment consisted of a direct form observation portrait of themselves. In the middle segment, they were to consider themselves as something else – either as an animate or inanimate object. And finally they were asked to place themselves in a specific location, environment, or situation.
The images below, from Melissa Del Balso and Tsz Ho Tsang, are documentations of their time based sculptural interventions – made for a third semester DISA sculpture class.
The following project are from a 3rd semester sculpture class in our DISA profile.
The following movies are projects done by DISA students in their sculpture class. The premise the students worked with was that time and space were mediums to be manipulated sculpturally.
Caiohme Beaulé – Perpetual Rhythm – an animation where the life cycle of a plant is seen as a metaphoric parallel to the psychic cycle of a human being.
Malcom Macdonald – Smile – Playful yet macabre – speaks to the child in all of us.
To start the New Year off, here is a smattering of animated gifs from one of the option DISA classes. Hopefully, more to come. Vampires by Xavier Hamel, Self-Portrait as Borat by Xavier Bleau and Celebration by Angelica Sevilla.
Some images from our DISA students inspired by those wacky 1920’s-30’s surrealists.
