metamorphosis
My box mixed with Josie's with a touch of Karis!
My box mixed with Karis with a sprinkle of Josie!
The combination of Josie's and Karis's projects!
What to do?..what to do?...
Karis's memory box...
Josie's pencil box...

"What makes studio, studio?"
To be honest, the magazine I copied from magically disappeared today when I went to go scan it. So I went throw some other magazines to find one that could work. This spread was pulled from an I.D. magazine.

How Do you recreate a feeling from a memory by making a box?
Design and construct a container to house a personal memory.
My memory was...
Senior year prom, an event a teenage girl will never forget. My prom experience wasn’t however, the fairy tale story that is expected to have. It was pouring down rain by the time picture taking was over, the food I ordered at the restaurant was horrible, and my best friend ended up getting into a fight that I had to break up on the dance floor. Although prom hadn’t been what I expected, when I look back I’ll still be able to say that my senior prom was amazing. There was a moment that goes above and beyond all prom moments that I’ve had. At the same time that our prom was going on, there was a jazz band playing in the streets of downtown. Hearing the festive music made us decide, “hey lets do something different!” so we walked with our fancy dresses and tuxes through the crowds of casual dressed people and made something our own. Something no one else did on prom night. We drank coffee, danced in the street and walked through the riches of downtown Winston-Salem.
This was my first attempt...I thought we were suppose to somehow relive the memory and I did this by creating the illusion that you were going to walk down an ally that we saw, but no I was wrong. I was told that I needed to create more of what I was feeling when we were walking downtown rather than walking in downtown itself.
So I started writing down words to help me think of a feeling that could describe this one thing we did that nobody else at prom did. Then the word "different" appeared on my paper and BAM! I had my next idea! I didn't really have the right materials to make this at the time, but lets just say that it's the "ghetto" version of what I had in mind.
Final product! I chose to do this because I wanted to have something that had everything the same, but then had one thing different from the rest because walking downtown on prom night was different. Nobody else did it and it was a special thing to do. Color wise, I pick the colors black, red, and gold because those were the prom's theme colors. I tried to make that one square stand out as best as I could with a gold glossy paint compared to the dull red paint. I think it worked.
