Descriprtion of each artists work

These are the artisits work that i had choosen to place into my studios.


As both my above-ground and below-ground were both from the same artist I had developed a story behind why I had chosen another artwork form another artist. As both artworks were from Piccinini, I had placed the artwork from Nolan into it as well.

With the top studio been the work place of Piccinini as well as the bottom. Nolan has no work place, but the images play a role. The man on the horse back (Nolan’s artwork) is trying to take the hostages (on Piccinini’s side) to prison (as congratulating Piccinini) as Nolan was not given a work place by me.

Therefore, Piccinini is on a higher status as the art works are distributed through three different studios. The main work place is the centre (red) flower. The other two are galleries.

The materials used in order to make these studios are:-
Top studio: glass, translucent, wood, concrete and rough surfaces.
Bottom studio: glass, translucent, concrete and wood.

The art works are made in a quiet environment, as there is only one person that its designed (Piccinini).

Stairs within Google SketchUp

This are my staitrs desinged on Google SketchUp.


Spiral stairs (in Moleskine bookelt its the first stair desinged). This stair is used from the top (above-ground) all the way through the ground plane to the bottom (below-ground). The materials used are wood, translucent and steel. This materials are used so that the person can see right through the stairs as they travel up and down, therefore they know how much they got to travel.

After a few hours of play with designing stairs i had came up with my own design that suited my model.


This is a closer look at the stairs that i had made myself. This stair is used from the flowers connected to the ground plane and below-ground. The material used is just plane white concrete to give the person an image that this stairs are newly made in the model.
