Dana & Richelle: Week 15

1/12/2016

Richelle's update:

This week I found source material to brainstorm several new illustrations. Content includes stress symbols (sticky notes, flustered faces, clocks, tense muscles, etc.) in response to Dana’s question, “[i]s autism more common now than in the past?” As discussed in her response, environmental factors like stress on the mother may cause autism to be more prevalent in her child.  I am starting to merge various symbols of stress into a clock-like form to imply how a highly demanding busy life can cause symptoms of autism inherited by the youth. This is still being evaluated, but seems to be a topic of research and inquiry. Drawing coming soon.

​In addition to continually brainstorming and creating new drawings, it is time to consider installation ideas for SciArt Bridge’s upcoming showcase event at the School for Visual Arts, New York. Tonight, I am researching good framing options to display the image/text content for our pieces. A stunning way to showcase drawings is to “float” the artworks in a frame to create a shadow, which makes the artwork appear to be more 3-dimensional.  By utilizing white frames (as opposed to colored frames, metal, or exposed wood), the delicate drawings will be more prominent with a simpler and subtle frame. This upcoming week, Dana and I will be discussing our plans for installing and presenting our collaboration at the exhibition in February.
