The brontosaurus, tulip iron and luminary creations are among the final industrial design student artist’s display at the Duncan Anderson Gallery this week.
The standard look of the exhibit is an average of three pieces on each stall that represent fun, function and architecture.
When there are 15 exhibits in one room, it’s no wonder that the ensemble looks unkempt. It’s difficult to know where to start with so many pieces per student. On Tuesday, one student’s kiosk was yet to be set up. Each piece looks monochromatically fragile, but with no one on guard, there stand no boundaries between the viewer and the artwork.
Like with any project, the students incorporated their ‘about me’s’ with their projects that substituted an informal introduction introduction.
It’s strange how the craftsmanship of the display desks and the projects themselves are equally intriguing.
Make no mistake, the projects are solid, as in three-dimensional. They deviate from the previous standard conceptual designs glued on to a poster board. The degree of difficulty is raised a bar by the construction of the vacuum cube or the bubble gum dispenser Cadillac display. The materials used range from plastic to metal. All are equally sturdy and uphold their purposes as household items or toys.
Sam Saucedo’s tulip iron comes in three colors and looks like an incognito snail-shaped “Glade” air freshener.
The Nerf Hand-Striker looks as it if was mass manufactured in China factories to be distributed to all Toys “R” Us stores.
Rocio Vasquez’s talent, with abstract design and vintage nostalgia, was tripled with his Peter Zumthor design, named after the Swiss architect. The rotating building model made of wood was built with intricate columns and staircases.
Overall, the industrial design exhibit is a strong finish of furnishings for the semester.
