CLASS.f133d0475vaf1031

The creative thinking class we do three times mind map. First the lecturer said we need to take mahjong paper, I do not know what is the mahjong paper, although know mahjong.After that I ask my classmate to know what is the mahjong paper,  Singapore also have people playing mahjong, with a square white sure and playing mahjong, this piece of paper called mahjong.

我觉得制作mind map可以很好的发散思维，这对于我来说是非常重要的

I think mind map can be divergent thinking is good, it is very important to me.Because before making mind map, I can put out and write I want to, regardless of whether associated with the theme.

CLASS.f133d0475vaf1031

The creative thinking class is the most interesting, each lesson, the teacher will give us to do the task. One is find for fifteen people and things, no leaves of the tree, dead people, eating ice cream, telephone etc.. After the group, each group member will start looking for began around the campus. The more backward looking for more difficult. Have a look the number at the back of the school a short in front of the house, we look for a long time. Because it rained that day, not very beautiful cloud, we had to take a cloud.When looking for a stranger to take photographs, we hesitated for a long time, finally took. This experience is very interesting.

2D FUNDAMENTALS.f133d0475vaf1031

The final operation is an A2 2d personal job, there are four theme options, symphony, carnival, industrial pollution, transport. We do A0 size groups during the operation plus an A2 job, some stress, fear not finish. But the last group assignments a week before the submission is complete, so that we can focus completely on the A2 on a job, and finally a 2D fundamentals, the lecturer gave us an entire class period to draw individual assignment of A2.

My A2 job finally began to draw in the last one week, the lecturer is required to express the theme simple shape, so I'm on a relatively flat piece of color ， I think it will simple, but I felt drawn should a uniform color painting is not an easy task.

DRAWING FUNDAMENTALS.f133d0475vaf1031

This week at the end of this semester last content is drawing fundamentals, next week will be submission. The last class is human figure, before practice the teacher asked the requirement of the submission. The first exercise is draw a sketch of wooden human figure,this wooden figure can be put into a variety of movements, the lecturer asked our in seven minutes to draw two sketch,a total of ten painting. Because we just draw a sketch , so as long as the rough shape, but the proportion and dynamic must be accurate.

May be the last lesson,we all worked hard ,and very positive.

The second exercise is to draw the human body, and reward students who were late , let them to be a models.

3D FUNDAMENTALS.f133d0475vaf1031

Today,we will submission the final work sketch.This is the fourth model,is last one,more difficult.We spend two weeks to introduce and draw draft.In our class,most of people have not  to start doing their final work. So，in this final class  we have draft and thoughts tell the lecturer，then I can determine our model, and then to the fastest speed to do it.

Lecturer also ask our ,we must do a journal combine workbook ,inside included sketches and images of all project must be clearly labelled and documented(3 views).But now，I even did not start  doing my final project.So，I must hurry to determine my final project，and then ，making the moedel，and finishing the journal.

DRAWING FUNDAMENTALS.f133d0475vaf1031

The first class of the semester is drawing fundamentals,I was a little nervous, because in nearly a year before the start of the time not hold paintbrush,even I don't know how to draw.The content is very special in first class, the lecturer taught us to using straw to painting. Because long time not painting, and it is not used the tool to draw,the effect like writing brush, there are Chinese style. Each week after Monday are drawing fundamentals, every lesson I will learn a new content, and a lot of homework, but this is good thing,at least weekly progress.Homework were completed almost now.

3D FUNDAMENTALS.f133d0475vaf1031

The third model is not the same with the previous two,the theme is deconstruction and reconstruction. In the model before making the lecturer gave us a little exercise, the foam balls randomly into five pieces, and then use wire put them together, we can abstract, concrete. Through this exercise I know what I need to do is to complete things removed, then re assembled into something completely different to the original.I bought a second-hand small electric fan,the other students,some mobile phone,computer,camera,etc..

Started very confident I can do well ,but opened later,found that the parts are very few,so I thought for a long time,finally decided to do a flying machine dog.

3D FUNDAMENTALS.f133d0475vaf1031

Before making model I want to do done well,but the reality never reach the desired effect,it may be ability problem,so I will continue hardworking.

The second model is to use art card production.The art card cut into various size of round,and then inserted together.The lecturer gave me advise,and then cut the art card into a big circle,then divided in two,vertical plugged together,so that it can be the base.Because it is used in the white art card,and no color,I think that will give the other people a lot of space to imagine,very interesting.

After making to the lecturer,he is quite satisfactory.

3D FUNDAMENTALS.f133d0475vaf1031

I gave the lecture saw my first model,the lecturer is not satisfied with this model, because this model looks not three-dimensional. But the lecturer to help me modify the work so that it can look three-dimensional,but the lecturer still want me to redo. I listened to the lecturer, and to buy materials. The second is more difficult,and to be more bent place with more structure relative to the first one to be more complex,connected place is a bit unstable. Hand was get the hurt. I spent a night time and again do another one, redo one is a camera that is my favorite.

3D FUNDAMENTALS.f133d0475vaf1031

I have been to the production model is very interested, also I will buy the tools of making model. When we know the 3D fundamentals can be used to make our own model, I feel very excited.

The first lesson, the teacher requires the use of wire to make a model, I bought my own need to wire, then began making. Because the class before the teacher asked us to draw a draft, so make them do not need to think too much. But I having trouble in the process of making model,So I search the methods of making model, if it can let the wire into the desired shape with a simple and rapid method.I hope the lecturer can give me advice.

f133d0475vaf1031

 

This semester, mainly about the eighteenth Century to 

nineteenth Century art. Because I didn't understand for

 this period of history, so by surfing the Internet for 

information about the development process of fashion,

architecture,object and so on.

 

I understand more artists and works, understanding the

 current art does not just happen, it is gradually developed 

from the simple things, step by step improvement, 

innovation in the original works, will now have such a great art.

 

To learn more about others good works,I can better use the idea

 in my own works. At the beginning of the study will feel good

 creative is difficult,but learning,find information,and will have 

a good idea than before.

 

Wu Guanzhong.f133d0475vaf1031

 

Wu Guanzhong,one of the foremost painters in Chinese modern art,

was a leading exponent of abstraction in China.He became renowned 

for synthesising Eastern and Western sensibilities,exploring the

 possibilities of abstraction in traditional Chinese ink and Western oil 

painting.

Wu saw form as an important component in appreciating a work of art,

seeing beauty in formal visual elements like line,shape,colour,texture 

and composition.These were of critical concern,much more than subject 

matter and physical resemblance to an object in reality.Wu believed

 that appreciation of art begins with appreciation of the formal visual

 elements.To him ,this approach is instinctual,something that comes

 naturally to all of us.

Cheo Chai-Hiang.f133d0475vaf1031

 

The use of LANGUAGE in contemporary art-making can be a powerful tool,as artists engage 

with wordplay and their semantic allusion to open 

up new reading in art,beyond their visual qualities.

This Unitled work by Cheo Chai-Hiang,submitted to the 1976 National Sculpture 

Exhibition,comprises of an adapted log of wood,lodged 

with a traditional washing board,that is design to open

 and reveal text from the final stanza of the 1922 Robert 

Frost poem,stopping by the Woods on a Snowy Evening.

Initially in the exhibition,By incorporating text into the 

artwork,Cheo’s work navigates between the realms of the

 texture an

 the visual.By interchanging the location of meaning for 

viewers between text and air object,viewers are prompted 

to reconsider the processes of how artworks can be read and 

understand.

AHMAD ABU BAKAR.f133d0475vaf1031

 

AHMAD ABU BAKAR made Untitled(Chair) in response to the rising consumerism of 1990s Singapore

 where portable music players became popular and frequently seen

 to be used by commuted on public transportation.The work was a 

reconstruction of an earlier piece,since lost,which Bakar made in 

1992 at The Space exhibition at Hong Bee Warehouse,organised by 

The Artist Village.At this exhibition,participating artists created new 

works utilising found object from the discussion during a sculpture 

forum,and critic,itself symbolic of capital punishment in Singapore.

For the artist,it was the state of metal absorption amongst music 

listeners that was od his primary interest in the making of the work

 as the artist reflected on the relationship between meditation and 

torture.

interior.f133d0475vaf1031

 

Because study with a teacher who teach interior design for a 

period time,I an very interested in interior design,and often 

look on the interior decoration of the TV program when I was 

young.So I’m very want to carefully study this part. 

 

In my opinion,the interior design is very interesting,I can see 

a lot of very interesting furniture design.because we often stay 

indoors,so indoor decoration,furnish and decorate very influence

 people’s behavior and mood.So it is closely related to us.

Interior design is to learn a lot about it,not only the whole 

space good-looking,but also meet the needs of occupants,the functional 

of indoors is indispensable.

museum.f133d0475vaf1031

 

Due to the completion of homeworks,so my classmates and I went

 to visit the Singapore art museum.Happy is that we can visit the 

museum free of charge.And after entering the museum we know

 there is a Chinese artist exhibition--Wu Guanzhong.So we according to the museum guide book to where 

we want to go to. It is a pity that night,so many pavilions are turned

 off,we can only see a few pavilion.

I have been to the museum of curiosity,may rarely have the opportunity

 to go to the museum.I remember the first time I went to the museum 

and see the exhibition ,is the world famous painter.After seeing the exhibition

 that can draw a good work is very difficult thing,so I think I need more 

practice. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

TRAVEL.f133d0475vaf1031

Most people planning a rare trip,finally turned into a lot of  photo album,those who travel in the move but then put it away unheeded.Maybe at one time,you can travel in to pick up the brush,hand painting the details of journey. 

From now on, you'll find out the time of waiting for the bus are meaningful; every night in a hotel room alone graffiti happiness; in the postprandial depicting encounter beauty; or on the way a harvest aftertaste. Rather than travel photos, these painted graffiti seems to have a life of their own,A picture in the calling of our future, enter only belongs to own world.

home.f133d0475vaf1031

Life at home is about creating space for every life as it happens.For all the things you want to do.For the things you love.And for everyone that you spend your time with.Because when the home works for the way you live,Life simply because better.

Often,it's the smallest moments that matter the most.Like being lazy on the sofa,legs crossed,talking about everything and nothing.

Or finding the time to be together,doing the most ordinary everyday things.Don't be afraid to bend the rules to create a home that works for you.

You can make a difference without leaving your home,just by living more sustainably.It is all those small things that are part of daily life that can save you time and money-like using less energy and water,or reducing waste.

BANKSY.f133d0475vaf1031

Banksy is a pseudonymous England-based graffiti artist,political activist,film directer,and painter.His satirical street art and subversive epigrams combine dark humorous with graffiti done in a distinctive stenciling technique.

“I want change”When I was searching for information about Banksy on the internet,I was attracted to this sentence,I think I need to change,especially I chose the goal of learning in this year. 

A Palestinian boy walks past a drawing by Banksy, along part of the controversial Israeli barrier near the Kalandia checkpoint in the west Bank .

On the wall of a sexual health clinic in Park street. Following popular support, the City Council has decided it will be allowed to remain.

HAPPY DESIGN.f133d0475vaf1031

We believe in happy design,We’re especially drawn to the impact and beauty of simple,modern graphic shapes and bold colors.We imagine these pieces would be equally happy in spaces for kids or adults.

Happy is that people most need and most wanted.In the life of people,if not happy,life will become boring.But with the development of  the times,people's life is really less a lot of happy,most people with serious to disguise himself.

In my opinion,the most simple is happy,a lot of the things you think it is complicated,you will not be happy.We should return to the most simple life at the appropriate.

GROWTH&DECAY.f133d0475vaf1031

Time.you can’t see it,hear it or touch it,but lifetimes are defined by it.Growth makes decay necessary,decay makes growth possible,and beauty unfolds within the progression.

In every corner of the earth,every time there is new and fade away,this is the law of nature,human beings cannot defy. 

We want to do what we want in life has not withered;we're going to have a look the world;to learn what we do not know knowledge.We will realize our value in the limited time.

This work combines the growth and decay,fresh flower on the body and growth.Although the body has not decomposed,but be foil flower that is so pale.
