For this assignment, we were supposed to come out with our own representations of certain impressions or experiences we had have while working on the project. In order to illustrate this ideas, we had to came out with 3 different collages. Each representing one part which are: Site, the word "Strand" and last but not least the program of our project.
Site Collage:
When I was in my site, one of the things I noticed right away is that all the trees are array sort of in a line formation one after the other at the same distance. They all look the same too which brings the idea of a path surrounded by trees that is leading somewhere represented on the walls of the tunnel. The tunnel is the whole Brooklyn Strand and the trees path on the wall is my site. My site is encouraging and leading people to follow the pointed direction towards the Brooklyn Bridge and the amazing views of the piers.
The Strand Collage:
The meaning of the word strand is a single thin length off something such as thread, fiber, or wire, especially as twisted together with others. My interpretation of this word, is based on the connection that makes you think of a rope, how is being tied and twist and perhaps connected with other rope. This pictures represent the diversity of cultures of the world and how as well even though there are plethora of places, they all point to one direction one place.
Program Collage:
For this project, I mostly want to create a place for the children and family of the community, where they could have an educational environment as well recreational and creative. A place they can relate and create art and crafts and built a bond with books and their parents.
