Diamond in the rough!

My visual interpretation of time

/Guggenheim museum in Bilbao by Frank Gehry


Tomorrow I have to present deconstructivist architecture in my "Visual Culture Theory" seminar group. It will be a group presentation and I will cover the part about the cultural and historical context. The building we have chosen is Frank Gehrys Guggenheim museum in Bilbao. I decided to load up some visual research I have done into post-modern architecture. I am really into architecture and ever since it has had a massive impact on my creative thinking in general.


This is an installation by Richard Serra, which I have seen in the MoMA in NYC in June 2007

In the second " Typo/graphics" workshop we were asked to write a quote with our designed typeface. I made up my sentence by combining two quotes. Additionally to that I created an illustration of a diamond, which is made out of the shapes of letters of my font.
