For this project I chose a spot that I first explored last year during an extra credit assignment for biology. The place is called Chadwick Lake and it's a research lake. I chose this particular place because not many people know about it and disregarding the fact that it borders 315, it's probably one of the most secluded and serene places on campus. When I get the chance, I like to just go out to this lake and think and sometimes do homework.
The images I used for a sculpture were the Heisman Memorial Trophy and just a regular boat. I chose the Heisman Trophy because it is the most prestigious award in college football and I have a special tie to college football. Ever since middle school, I wanted to play football in college but several things prevented that from happening. I still to this day wish I could play football at the college level. The reason I chose the boat is pretty simple; The Heisman can't swim.
The way I had my images set up is to show 3 different perspectives. One is a close up, another is at a medium distance, and the final is a far away shot. I especially like how the only one you can clearly define the trophy is from close up. When you look at all three images in succession it's almost like you're zooming in and out.
