Project Proposal: dwelling

Theme: dwelling- a place of residence, home, shelter.
A house can say a lot about culture, religion and the people who live there. In creating a dwelling im representing a part of my culture (guatemala).
I'm going to use red clay.

    I love how you like to focus on culture. I'm really excited to see this. You work so well with clay (like your face jar thing!) and I can't wait to see your dwellings. I like how you incorporate culture, religion, and customs into your work, and how you focus on other countries, not just the United States. It makes you stand out and shine even more than you already do :)

  2. LOVE IT! The Clay Goddess returns!

    I think you should commit to one house/piece of architecture specific to Guatemala and then see if you have time to create multiple pieces.
    Into it.
