Original Concept Improved





Concept #1
The final model was hard to accomplish due to the limitations on Sketchup using a 3-point plane. However, I tried to design the overal shape and so I could exhibit the final shape/concept of my model.

Stairs




This video clear shows how the stairs has been created without much thought. Realistically this is just a joke advertisement but it shows us that the stairs is an essential part in moving from one level to another but its placement is key and must have the nessescary health and safety implementated. 




Both sets of stairs are made up of reinforced steel on the sides and thick glass plates. The bottom stairs banister is also made up of glass walls. These stairs are supported by the pre-fabricated steel that is designed to hold large amounts of weight efficiently. The glass plates are supported between two lips of the metal side supports.

Rosalie Gascoigne

Rosalie Gascoigne’s artwork titled ‘Piece Work’ which she created in 1994 is made up of sawn off wood on craftboard. The artwork is relatively large at a just under a one meter square. The artwork is classified as a sculpture mostly made up of wood cut offs.

When asked how she finds her materials Rosalie explains that she waits for a fine day and gets into her car and just goes roaming in the countryside. She didn’t mind if she didn’t find anything as the countryside was absolutely amazing and then she found the country dump by a lot of roaming, this gave her a lot of materials full of life.  Once she has all these objects she shelters them from the elements. Once she starts creating an artwork she roams her studio looking for materials that bring her to a realisation.

‘Her particular response is to find beauty and poetry in the ordinary things that represent and allude to the changes in terrain and climate.’ - Copyright Art Gallery of Western Australia


Tracey Moffat 

Tracey Moffat an Australian contemporary artist who created ‘Adventure series #2’ in 2004 utilizes photography as her main medium. ‘Adventure series #2’ a C-print collage is relatively large in scale at just over a 114cm wide and 132cm high.

Tracey believes that this set of works would be easy to create and yet she faced many obstacles in collecting all the props she needed. ‘Everything, even with the help of professional model agencies, props people and assistants was very expensive and very hard to find.  Never think that art making is easy.  It is always a test.’ - Tracey Moffat

About Me


Close Up

 'The powerful nature of playful proteas' was my most creative art piece in High School. The piece was my HSC major work an was selected for artexpress. The artwork consists of 2 large scale prints (A0) alongside 9 mounted prints (A4) and 14 square tiles (15 x 15cm).  A Canon 400D  with a 18-55mm lens was used to capture these images utilising the macro settings.

The new Anfield stadium to be built in Stanley Park was redesigned by American company HKSto provide a cost effective stadium, yet the redesign is simply stunning. The company has managed to create a 78,000 seat stadium with a 18,500 Kop end which was essential to pleasing Liverpool fans world wide. The acoustics of the stadium have been designed and so that the Kopend is essentially a wall of sound.
