Balsa Wood & Paper Sculptures

Overview
This project was more open-ended in terms of requirements. I used balsa wood and wood glue for the balsa wood sculpture to create a repetitive work of art. The principle of design shows in the rhythm and the movement of the balsa wood squares on the balsa wood base. It also shows in the dried wood glue in between each wood panel. To create texture I used a push pin on each of the squares. Space is an important element of design in this piece because it helps to emphasize the dried wood glue. For the paper sculpture I used letter paper and masking tape to create another sculpture. I utilized texture for this piece by crumpling the paper and cutting the edges. This sculpture can be presented on a wall or in the middle of a table as a decorative piece.
