PP Ideas
(Save us, trees artwork)
a. AOI: This idea relates to the AOI Environment, which helps awakened other people about how there are trees needed to be saved from a polluted city.
b. Background: With having lots of pollution caused by our doings in our environment, I think that we should also take care of the plants which take the role for converting carbon dioxide with oxygen for us people to breath. So there are so many ideas that came up to me as I first asked to find topics for my personal project. So I come up with a topic that relates of saving the environment. So I would like to make a canvas which has a message "Save Us", which the writing is made up by having little real plants which be planted behind the canvas. So the canvas will be glued to a semi-circle form, which on them I will make a map of the world made up of dead leaves and branches. Inside the circle, there will be an overlapping of buildings (looks like 3D) with all of the smokes on the air. So to see the inside, there will be a hole in between the "Save Us", which shows the plant's calling for help because there had been so many pollutions and that there is not enough trees to control because they are being cut with the illegal loggers. There will be many symbols in this artwork, for example, later in the smokes above, there will be the names of chemical substances that made up pollutions. There will also be a representation of a branch of a tree is half cut.
c. Goal: The goal from this idea is to aware people that their daily doings (drive cars, cut trees, etc) are bad for the air we breath everyday. I would like to also deliver a message of how can I invite people to plant more trees because trees have so many benefits for humans, just like what God has represent Himself to us, which is as a tree and we as the branches.
Who? I will be focusing on how plants are really an important role for human. For making this, I will be having resources from people who could help me to work on the designs and little artworks (the buildings) i am going to make at the inside of the circle. I will also be having different sources on what actually plants do (respiration, photosynthesis, etc).
What? The final result would be a big artwork which includes plants, dead leaves, and little artworks inside the artwork.
When? I will be doing the research if I got time at school, and that I could ask for my related subjects teacher for inputs and comments on how should I make it better.
Where? I will start making the painting at home because there will be many things to do with different materials.
Why? The reason why is because I wanted other people to got the message of saving the trees from a busy-hectic city.
How? I will use different kinds of mediums; canvas, carton, wires, etc.
(Flower color painting)
a. AOI: Human and Ingenuity
b. Background:
Every people will go through his or her bad times, there will be challenges for being a good person. If we are patient enough and just accepting what God will going to do with our life, we will then shine and bloom like a flower which first grow through dirt. So in this PP, I would like to make a painting which the paint colors comes from the pigment of flowers. The colors on the painting are actually the color of the flower. The painting itself will tell a message which is "Every flower must grow through dirt". This means that everything has to endure tough obstacles. The plant comes through the filth and grime the world calls "dirt" and the flower turns out, and still blooms with sweet fragrance and delicate beauty for having gone through the perils it has.
c. Goal: The goal from this topic is to increase everyones confidence, and also to support and tell them that it is okay if we have problems, it hasn't be the time for us to shine. Because then at the right time, you will be beautiful like the flower and bring happiness to other people's faces.
Who: I will be researching about all of the little things about flower, what does it make for the flower to produce different colors, what are the colors in its petal for, what makes them colorful, and how could the color be used for making a painting.
What The final result will be a painting where there'll be a sentence "Every flower must grow through dirt". There will also be small symbols and pictures to actually bring out the message more.
When I will be doing the research in school, or at home, or to ask to my teacher which is related with life of living things (Biology teacher).
Where I will be working this in school, which I also could ask help from an art teacher (Pak Benny) and ask for feedback and improvements. Because by that then I will know which should be confirmed and which one should be taken away.
Why The reason why I made this is because I wanted to study about Biology, about cells in living organisms, especially in flowers, and that because I also wanted to improve on my painting skills and ideas.
How I will be using canvas, and maybe a little bit of acrylic because I don't think the color from the flower is strong enough to be seen from far. I think that it will need help to make strong color to the eye.
(Small Garden)
a. AOI: Environment
b. Background: With the situation in our surrounding that has lots of pollution , I am inspired to make a small garden (maybe 1.0 m x 0.5 m) consisting small plants. I will learn about landscape and what should I have on the places. I will then know what I would have to do to take care of them so that they could reproduce more. I will also choose for the plants that has flower because then I need to research also on how the animals reproduce and what help the got from the wind or the insects themselves.
c. Goal: The goal from this topic is to invite others to plant trees because trees are useful for human and they are such a pretty thing to look at. Other than that, it also increase my knowledge about designing and lay outing a landscape.
Who I will find a source which talks about small gardens and what are the things should be maintain (the light, pH, or temperature) for the plants to grow fertile enough to reproduce.
What The final result will be a board which it will be a small garden with tiny plants.
When I will be researching about this at school, and ask for my teacher about what is needed for a plant should grow.
Where I will be doing this probably at school when I have the time to, or maybe at home because I could also ask my gardener about this.
Why The reason why I did this is to awaken other people about how useful plants are for their survival in life.
How I will be having a board which could hold up a small garden, and lots of gardening equipments.
