Architectural Design Studio 1: Project 1: Self Expression

 Self expression. Thus was the title for the first official assignment of the semester, where we had to express ourselves through any means to our preference. In other words, we were to express our personality and traits in the form of art. This project is a continuation from the self-portrait, thus elements of it had to be kept, or altered so as to show progressive work. We also had to properly present our works and explain the story beneath the art.





As prep for Project 1, we were to create a self-portrait of sorts, to best represent our personality; characteristics, and etcetera. My self portrait was an illustration of a cat; with flowers each symbolising a certain trait or characteristic. It was interesting to be able to implement a part of ourselves into a part of our work, even if it was merely a drawing. Also, thorough research was done about symbolism, a subject that I personally adore.
