IDEA AND FORM
Objectives
Create a object(s) composition that is free-standing (without a base) and includes the use of negative space. The material limitations are open. The point of the form is to communicate something immaterial, namely, and idea assigned to you. The object(s) composition must feature the Element of Form assigned to you in a dominant way that has an active visual role in communicating that idea.
Assigned Element of Form and Idea
My assigned element of form and idea was Power and Illumination. The idea of power was achieved by using the color red because of its association with danger, power and rage. And my element of form, Illumination, was achieved through the use of two small puck lights that I fit inside my pyramid and configured them to create two sections of the pyramid, separated by a shadow, to show a hierarchy of the pyramid, emphasizing my idea of power.
