Reflection Statement

The three sculptures visually communicate pattern, focal point, and negative space. As I experimented with different materials, I found myself drawn to ideas of infrastructure and stability, which guided many of my decisions. Incorporating hot glue as a structural element became a consistent theme across all three pieces. Early on, I felt the sculptures lacked enough material presence, so I began testing a wooden base to create more balance and support.

Going forward, I want to continue exploring hot glue as its own material rather than simply an adhesive. I added string to begin experimenting with macramé techniques as well, since that’s an area I’m curious to develop further. Overall, this project allowed me to step outside my usual approach and discover new possibilities in combining materials.
