On your blog write a paragraph (approximately 120 words) for each of the two artists describing the materials and production methods used in the examples of their work you have chosen (e.g. what materials is Patricia Piccinini's "The Young Family" made out of and how would she have made it?).
Sidney Nolan's artwork is a oil painting based on the "outback" of Australia. The hot colours that he incorporated into his painting was to emphasise the heat and the dryness of central Australia. I used this idea to create the underground section of my structure. The underground gallery and studio will constructed using re-inforced concrete to create the shapes of the hanging Stalactites. The cavernous rocky surface emphasise the sense of dryness however instead of the heat of the outback I contrasted it with the glass on the walls. The glass in the underground cavern was suppose to be facing into the rocky wall faces around the studio however for display purposes so far the glass still see into the open. Piccinini's Nest I see flow due to the smooth and sleak surface of the models she made. I used the idea of flow to construct streamlined stairs in order to show continuity (i.e. flow). The materials I will use for the stairs are re-inforced concrete, glass, wood and steel rods. The concrete can be moulded into different shapes and in this case it will be made into a curved smooth shape to convey the meaning. The glass and wood will be built into the stairs. The glass will be opaque to ensure safety also the wood used will be hardwood which will also ensure the safety for the cilents. Steel rods are present for support and also gives the stairs a suspension bridge look. The idea of the similarity between the bridge and the stairs will comfort the cilents due to it safety measures and will also be artistic at the same time. The material involved in this structure is very simple so that construction will be easy and also it will be safe for all who used the facilities.
