Installation Sketches


Here are a few of the sketches created for the installation. Before actually breaking ground, there were a few decisions to make. The class had to agree on whether the beginning point for the sculpture would be raised or below the surface of the ground.






The consensus was to begin with a raised mound, signifying unity while reflecting the raised topography of the installation site. The tail portion would then "flow" in 4 steps, below the surface, drawing attention to the change in elevation on the installation site.







The final plan, not shown, merges all of the agreed upon elements of the sketches into what will be one cohesive work of art that visually explores the complex dynamic between unity and individuality.
