In Sculpture II our first project is a wood chiseled relief sculpture. I thought it’d be neat to add light to it and my original concepts were illuminated veins in a tree — I ended up going for something with a little more character — a tree spirit similar to the ones found in some Japanese films. I’ll be building a box to house the lights and I’ll have a slightly ghosted plexi screen in front to catch the light coming through the wood — this gives it a slightly eerie feel to it. I bought some of the materials for that today and did some tests even though I’m not done with the chiseled wood.
