Shelters, in the wide sense of the word
March 19th, 2008 at 7:39 PM by Dieter
Our final project in 3D design was to make some sort of shelter whether it be literal or a play on the idea of shelter. In the spirit of spring I decided to make a butterfly inside of a cocoon. I used wire to make a frame, covered the wings with tissue paper, put a light inside, and used an organic looking cotton paper for the cocoon.
The rest of the pictures are of another student’s work which was a room made of tons of boxes, it was ridiculous. He even had a couple girls sitting on the couch inside the cardboard room just sitting on the couch the whole time. His project took up more than half the room, it was ridiculous! after the critique they ran through the walls of the room making all of the boxes fall all over the place, quite a scene.

I can’t help myself. A cocoon is for moths – chrysalis is for butterflies. You’re lucky your prof didn’t have a zoology minor! Great work!

That’s crazy, it kind of reminds me of the eggs in Aliens, except transparenter.

Tyler – transparenter? What language is that? Or are you just joining your brothers in making up words?
