[F&V] Kokopelli: Face the Research
Significance of the Face
The lucky body part that I managed to draw from the Pandora’s Box is… the face! The face is a unique and complicated part of the body. It is not merely another part of the body, but it plays huge roles in shaping us into the person we are and also how we communicate with Read more →

Pandora Revisited: Process/Drawings
Revisiting the Pandora’s Box, the three keywords that I received to put together in a module were: Pack, Extrude and Skew. In this post you will find the process of the making of the final ice tray using repeated moulds of the same module.
INITIAL MODULES
Module 1:

Hi Cheryl, thanks for the feedback! I will update my drawings accordingly. I actually did show you the plaster mould during class as well, I was just worried that the texture might have been considered bad craftsmanship of some sort haha.
I forgot to collect my silicon mould before coming home for the new year so I’ll try to get the ice up as soon as possible. :(
Happy CNY!!
Hi Cheryl, I'm not sure if you've seen my updated post so just tagging you here in case :)
