OVERLAY

This weekend long workshop began with a study of the arrangement of primitive geometries in 2d space. These figures were then given color and set at different opacities to allow for unique interpretations of depth and space on a flat plane. The next phase in the process centered around the translation of two dimensional geometric studies into the slightly extruded state that comes from the 2.5d perspective. Extrusions, boolean operations, and shifts were used to emphasize spaces

AIAS WEEKEND WORKSHOP and conditions identified in the 2d explorations. Materials and transparency were added to the extruded geometries, once again creating an overlapping composition. The individual portion of the workshop concluded with the reworking of geometry to become entirely three dimensional with homage to the cube. Overlapping transparent figures with solid geometry continue to play with two dimensional concepts, and become emphasized with the added depth and shadows that are introduced.
