Int. Studio & Seminar 2: Bridge Project 2 – Chronologies- Butterfly

For my chronologies piece I chose to create a butterfly. Within my essay for seminar I discussed my discovery of family, life, and art. All of that would never have happened if it had not been for my aunt. In the essay, I state how she is everything to me and more, and that I am forever grateful for her existence.

Steps:

  1. I mapped out all of the possible ways I could create a butterfly
  2. I picked my idea
  3. i went to Mood Fabric Store
  4. Went through 8 different swatches ignorer to find the perfect color
  5. I finally went with the color code: black silk textured, cotton lilac, and sequenced sparkly black and silver lace, and black metal
  6. Each color had a significance behind it
    1. Black textured silk: for the hard color black that my aunt and i both wear daily, as well as a personality resemblance
    2. Cotton Lilac:
  7. I went back to my dorm and went back to my previous butterfly sketches
  8. Chose a different butterfly in the end
  9. I think that the shape that i finalized was more distinct, and resembled my aunt
