Descriptive Summary- Yoon

Creating the previous work, I put a lot of time into handling the starting object and the casting process. This helped me a lot in generating ideas; so in order to create new work I will be spending much time to investigate the features of the chosen object thoroughly by recreating (this probably will include some casting, and some handcraft work with clay, wax, etc.) them and drawings.

What I am interested in at the moment is the sense a series of subverted animate and inanimate objects would create. Through these manipulated objects I would like to explore the minor features that most people don’t pay attention to however determine them what they are. I feel that I am bound to the object, the giraffe, so I will be trying to move away from it a little, although I would still like to work in the subject of animals as well as including some inanimate objects that seem to me to arouse similar feelings as when looking at unfamiliar (unusual-looking, mysterious?) animals. Making process will be similar to what I have done in the past; it’s going to include exaggeration, separation and manipulation of the objects and what is going to be new is restructuring of the separated pieces. Also, I think I will still be working in fairly small sizes, which seem to challenge the audience in adjusting the balance of the fixed idea on the objects they see and produce some fantastical narratives in the process of interpreting the work.
