Final submission The Aquarium art Gallery

My gallery owner is not actually an artist himself. After getting fired from his job as a marine biologist he took the escape in what he thought would be an easy task - to become a sculpture. He bought the first place he saw for sale with the hope of putting his art on display, and got to work. As it turned out, this was not as easy as it seemed, and what he managed to get together was not good enough to show to others in order to be taken seriously.
So, he came up with the brilliant idea of (ignoring plagiarism) displaying copies of other artists work - but with a twist: to put them under water...

Drafts, Parti's and Poche's

I started out exploring with the obvious elements in my design, the doors of opportunities and the wall they were going to sit in.


When I then made my Parti's I meant to show the obvious ways that gives you the first opportunity, a starting point, to base your oncoming choices from.





The Poches was quite hard to illustrate because of the unknown environment behind the doors. However this also made it easier because it could just be anything. The same goes for my drawings and model, since I couldnt go on with endless rooms and interlocking spaces, only the first transitional space is illustrated.






All drawings of my self produced drawings are at a scale of 1:100.

Site

The site I decided would be in a mountain. I wanted somewhere maze-like to enhance the notion of having a choice of where to go next - having no idea whats waiting around the next corner, having to rely on your choice and intuition to be able to hopefully get out.
