Project I: Rained<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This piece reveals loneliness in toilets. I want to visualize emotions within a public restroom, a small private island in public spaces. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\"Image<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n

Process<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I laser cut an acrylic sheet to build an inner transparent structure for the water facet and wrapped it with toilet paper, which I engraved in a poem, \u201cTo the Daffodil,\u201d by Chung Ho-seung using laser cut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Project II: Worship <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I wanted to talk about admiring someone. I used PVA to experiment. My goal was to make a water bottle that melts right after it. So it leaks water and finally collapses itself. I wanted to talk about how the failure or struggle of someone who wants to reach the ideal figure. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n

Process<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I 3d printed the bottom part of the water bottle. I put water in the part, but it did not dissolve and did not collapse. Next time, I would like to do an experiment with a thinner layer so that it can be melted.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Project III: Flower Blooms in Cloudy Words.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The title came from the title of the same tile of the book of poetry by Shin Kyu Park (\ubc15\uc2e0\uaddc). When I first entered the Dfab as a Ryan tour first-year student, I saw one print Korean poem in the Dfab shop written \u201c\uc6b0\ub9ac \uc11c\ub85c \uc0ac\ub791\ud558\uba74 \uc5b8\uc81c\ub77c\ub3c4 \ubd04\u201d This is kind of my reply to the print. I wanted to share that cloudy moments turn into something beautiful and alive.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Process<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Before we changed our plan to expand the garden, I met with Sarah Doherty and discussed what our class thought about activating the garden and what more things we could consider in the class. Michelle and I take outside-of-class time. We measure the garden and analog and transfer it into a rhino to make a model. After we changed our plan to make a footpath for the garden, I made one of the designs for the footpath and chose 3rd part to mill the mold. After that, we put cement in the mold to cure. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
