Today in class we received our new project assignment. The theme is "ecology". This seems like a broad subject. I've already used a tree in my first project which was probably more ecology than play now that i think about it. We saw some examples in class such as maya Lin whose work i've seen before. The Vietnam War Memorial is her most famous work but I liked the skating rink she did in the park in Grand Rapids. I also like Goldswothy"s work. I've seen video of the spiraling leaf snake in the stream which is also cool. I like being in nature and outdoors, when I lived in Colorado I spent days in the wilderness and would find myself also doing leaf art and stacking stones just out of habit, not for art but just to be active with nature.
