PART 1: What I’ve learned
ALineIsADot
Twin buildings facing each other - I work on the 4th floor.
What I’ve learned: A sketch app I use lets you create mirroring images. This accidental discovery helped me decide what subject I should work on. Accidental discoveries are much more fun than planned ones.
PART 1: What I’ve learned

OnesDestination
The “place” I had in mind was top of the mountains in the middle of the night. The top image is created on a page of my National Geographic magazine. As you can see, the text cascades in a shape of a mountain. The moon is a cut out piece of a
white sponge that I placed on the corner of the page. The diagram hints and highlights what the place may be.
What I’ve learned: Modifying a ready-made piece by using shapes and diagrams can change the dynamics of the original piece and turn it into something more playful.

VoyageDansLaLune
I live in a well-lighted city where view of the moon isn’t so spectacular. This moon is a collage piece of the different aspects of the moon that I find interesting – of-legend, sun-reflecting, and technology-testing.
What I’ve learned: Collage is fun.

YouGottaHave
This “body” is a female body. This body is mobile, balanced, interactive and fertile.
What I’ve learned: Interpretation seems to be the first active step in transformation.

DoorsOfPerception
This vase is a transparent one sitting under a window filtering and distorting sunrays.
What I’ve learned: A missing subject and remaining distorted light is very difficult to express.

What I’ve learned: This line plays with mass – whole and divided.

#PlayItByTrust By @silvawood http://instagram.com/p/x9bMTOrijk
I wasn’t able to take my version to a “higher level” as this one. This work is very expressive.
What I’ve learned: Actual stamps of a subject at an unfamiliar angle may be an honest and fun way to express it.

#BeSureYou By @alesxfontes_id http://instagram.com/p/zLudfgC7qK
This body map is quite straightforward and stylish at the same time.
What I’ve learned: Mind, body and place are scattered and plotted in a way that expresses motion and force.

#HumanBehaviourFlows By @ allnewyear http://instagram.com/p/y_DmD_viHt
This person’s place seems to be very crowded.
What I’ve learned: Perspective, force, and direction makes this piece very interesting.

PART 3: My Place
WhatMakesTheDesert
My previous collage had recognizable things. So I tried to get more abstract with this one. However, the eye-like shape seems to personify the center object. This place is my car in a sunshining day feeling fired up to pave through the day.
PART 3: My Place

BeSureYou
The place is my neighborhood. It’s a surburban city where tall buildings and a wide 10-lane road sits next to a slow running stream with wild ducks and white herons nesting.

This place is my neighborhood. I wish I had made it a little more abstract!

ThisWorldIs
This place is my room where my creative energy is at its peak. The dog in the image is Laika, the first living animal sent to space.
