Theory and the New Museum

The greater the level of investment the more rewarding will be the experience.

The New American Art Museum is based on several layers of investment. Each of these layers is rooted in the requirements. For instance, the need for museum spaces nationally and internationally has grown and specialty collections are becoming more common. With these layers of investment comes intersections of features which references the ideas of a museum in my life.

1) Water (movement)
2) Light (transparency with its root in watercolor art)
3) Nature (the natural environment)
4) History (Existing plantation precedence and function)

Each of these intersections bring a distinct character to help in forming a place where watercolor art can be created and enjoyed.

Progress for Now

I am working on a large scale rendering which I will post next week. It will be hand drawn and mixed media. With this rendering I will connect the building with the land and reveal many of the material selections which are part of my thesis. Please stay tuned.

The raw image and the result. The top image was the hand drawing. It revealed the volumes of the under ground and partially exposed spaces.
