Tape Shoes

I've slowly but steadily been working on these tape shoes. The object of the project was to gain a new understanding of 3D materials and conceptualizing space from 2D planes of tape. Height: 2.5 in, Depth: 12.25 in, Width: 4.75 in

Here are some in process photos:




Here are some studio shots I got of the finished product:

The piece was meant to meld these two styles as seamlessly as possible, while suspending them in the air in a way that does not suggest a mobile or other simplistic floating form. Suspension to Detail is derivative of the Baroque and Gothic architectural movements. The curvature of the filigrees are inspired by the Baroque era, and the archway itself is in the style of Gothic architecture. These two styles are eerily different very specific ways; Gothic architecture is rife with mathematical breakthroughs, such as the pointed arch (which became a more structurally sound and aesthetically pleasing way to support an open space; it a...

3D to 2D

From Sculpture to Portraiture Premise This project is meant to compose a 2D image using photographs of the 3D artwork made throughout the semester. The only stipulation was that the image must use multiple projects in an innovative way that creates an independent artwork. This is the result: From Ashes to Ashes
