notes for Dyonisus and others

General advice:

First, at the risk of reapeating myself, I would like to remind us all the the title of the two weks sketch problem is "A Synaesthetic Construction"- you must involve and specify cross modal sensorial experience.

Second; look back at your art installation and your movie for inspiration. For all practical purposes, whaqt you are constructing now is an art installation....

Notes for Dionysus

Pierre Chareau, French Architect look up books about him at Pratt Library
and his house Maison de Verre but look at his furniture storage boxes etc.

there are other artists tthat did collection boxes or cupboard furniture/armoire/closets type of sculptures.

All are ways to store personal objects. You should find them, printe them out and put them on the wall at your desk. I hope you do that in the studio so we can look at your research and help you be inspired by them.
