I've just finished a very strange piece recently. It was a man made of sheet metal and several card board boxes. I talked to Ms. Setina this morning and we discussed several possible approaches to my new pieces.
I was planning to make paper cuts of break dancers in a triangle shape and place a light bulb in the middle to cast shadows on the outside walls, but i was afraid it would come out too weak as a 3D piece (it would be more 2D oriented). So instead, we could carve more than one wax sculptures and place them in a line. I could still shoot light from behind to cast the shadows, but it would be essentially more interesting. Maybe i could make a wax sculpture that is partially melted.
Also, I'd focused too much on being "realistic", i should try to convey my ideas in abstract ways, or half half. For example, if i was making a boxer in his punching position, i could make the face and body abstract while the fist really realistic to show its strength.
