Final Model 1:1 Waking up






Final model in 1:1 scale. the materials used are aluminium panel, iron bar, wood panel and iron coloured paper to cover the wooden part (since I wasn't able to get my hands on larger metal panels.

Basically this is a small cut section of the train roof, which is the location of my project; on top of the train and also connected to the inside of the train.

In reality it's going to look like this, covering nearly one section of the train. (One person told me that  my drawing isn't clear. I hope I could have shown a better image but this is all I've got for now). 

First I started this idea from just having fun, finding some places where people won't usually sleep on (for example traffic light, on top of someone else's car or on the train).
--images of the research that I've done is shown on previous posts.
Than I developed my idea concentrating on dynamic details, and the idea that came out from is prasaite and gorilla occupation.
--images of that are also shown on my pervious posts.
Through this project I wanted show 'savageness' if that's a word or how it 'invades' or 'forces' itself to connect to something else. That's why I made a space that connects to the train at the same time showing the two objects difference by choosing a completely different material that contradicts to each other; dirty steel and clean wood.

There's also a reason why I chose that shape and gave folding affects. The original form of my project came from 'Grub' and 'Leech' which is also a parasite. Since the grub's buddy is divided into sections I also divided my structure into sections to give closer relationship to my developemental idea (parasite.)
