'Towering' - Installation Project Drawings


Pencil, biro pen and acrylics
Inspiration sketches for a three-dimensional installation based on the word 'towering.' I was considering emotions such as intimidation and fear, how it felt to be towered over, for instance, and creating drawings based off of these emotions. The head discs have patterns inspired by tree bark and the cells making up trees, as they're towering organic figures that can block out light and house crows and ravens and other gothic creatures. Trees became our group focus for the installation.

I also featured a quote from 'The Dislocated Room', a poem by Richard Siken, because I found this part of the poem to be particularly frightening and gives the reader the feeling of being small and helpless.
