Personal Space Box








The purpose of this project was to look closely at the work of Winslow Homer so that I could better understand who he is as an artist as well as learn how to describe, interpret, and evaluate works of art. In response to looking at Homer’s work, I created a relief sculpture that is inspired by his work and concepts.

Artists Studied: Winslow Homer

The place in my box is a place that my family goes almost every year in Florida. This place is important to me because my family and I have been going there since before I can remember. The sun on the sides show that not only the night there is important. I spent many wonderful days there, even though day time isn't the main focus of this box. I chose a sand dollar because when I was younger, my mom and I used to look for sand dollars. I thought that just using a normal shell wouldn't represent as much as a sand dollar.
