Theme: Play and materiality
Context:
1. 'Handmade 3D Cardboard Pop-Up Ornaments' is a series of pop-up sculptures. It could be find at: 'http://vimeo.com/peterdahmen/3dcardboardornaments'. It let me recognized that paper is a really special material that have a lot of potential. Because of the special characteristics of paper. it easy to create three-dimensional space with paper. So I decided to explore how to make playful staff with paper in this week.
2. 'How to make pop up paper crafts'. Could be find at: 'http://vimeo.com/9006806'. I learned how to make pop up cards in this video.
Methord:
I created a pop up card with hard paper and glue. When close the card, it shows an ordinary house. But when open the card, It appears that there is a monster who tried to catch a cat.
Response:
It's the first time I made a real thing for APD class. Because I think I need to explore the real material to understand this week's theme. I'm really enjoied making the real staff. But the outcome isn't good enough. And I failed to connect real objects with digital art. Maybe I could think about how to connect paper sculptures and digital art together.
